Mrs. V. Oak Hammock Middle School
Fort Myers, FL Grades 6-8

I teach 7th Grade Math which is the introduction to Algebra. Our school is located in a higher need community with very motivated students.

Most of my students cannot afford a scientific calculator which is a MUST for 7th Grade Math. I would love to have a class set in my room for the students to utilize.

I need 30 scientific calculators for a complete class set. Having these calculators will make math easier for my students, which will build character and self-confidence.

With you help, you will make it possible for my students to build higher self-confidence. Higher self-confidence will not only help with their education, but in real-life situations.
