My Project

My students need access to technology that helps them create, explore, and show what they know. The Apple 11-inch iPad A16 chip with Wi-Fi will give students a powerful tool for learning across subjects.

Students can use the iPad for reading practice, research, digital storytelling, recording fluency, creating projects, taking photos of their work, and using educational apps.

It can also support small groups, intervention, enrichment, and student choice activities.

This iPad will help make learning more interactive and accessible. It will give students another way to practice skills, share ideas, and build confidence with technology they will continue to use in the future.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
