Mr. C. Shirley D Simmons Middle School
Canton, MS Grades 9-12

I teach 8th grade and the projector will be such a help because I can put pictures of lab items and diagrams on the overhead so that all of the students will be able to see. I also have a microscope that can be projected on the screen but do not have a laptop to plug any of the equipment into.

My student are very visual and hands on. I like to have plenty of learning activities and if I could project the information onto the screen instead of writing it over and over. They would learn and I wouldn't be so worn out.

We have been given a projector and a cart and they are nice, but we need a laptop to operate the projector. This would benefit the students learning and create more time for me to build better lessons.

Every business meeting or seminar I have seen lately uses the projector and laptop system. You will make it possible for students to be familiar with this equipment during their school career.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
