DVD-VCR Combo Television Needed for Media Center

My students need a DVD Combo Television for our Library Media Center.

Liberty, MS Grades 9-12

I am the library media center facilitator at a high school in a very low income district. I am always in need of current technology for use by students and teachers, but our budget is extremely limited.

My students and teachers need new technology for integrated lessons. I am in the process of trying to upgrade our old VHS tapes to DVD, and I need to begin acquiring more players for use in the classroom.

I need a DVD combo television for use by teachers and students. This unit will be able to handle VHS as well as DVD as I begin to upgrade our catalog of educational videos. It is imperative that teachers utilize differentiated instruction in their classes, and this will allow them access to many unique educational videos and opportunities to bring exciting instruction to their students.

Please consider supporting this project. Our school has very limited technology due to our minuscule budget, but our students deserve to have more educational opportunities, and our teachers need more technology to bring these lessons to our students. By using integrated lessons and differentiated instruction, teachers are able to better prepare their students for college. We need your help! Thank you for your commitment to supporting students through DonorsChoose.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
