Two simple battle robots and one more advanced robotic platform, both rugged, satisfy my struggling math students with an alternative they crave.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. A's classroom raised $546

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
Continuation high schools specialize in alternative motivations for 11th and 12th graders. Students, who would drop out otherwise, love hands-on work. They can be engaged when the pace is fast.
Some continuation math students may count on their fingers, sadly, but they all clamor for activities that engage, and they have been screaming for robots. Machines that need brains, but that can roll and take a hit.
Two simple battle robots will excite and one robotic platform for more determined learners will keep students advancing so that technical careers will seem reasonable to attain and master.
Your donation doesn't just help keep students in school, and it doesn't just help them enjoy math and science. Your gift allows them to develop STEM skills that can enlighten and pull them into a better future for all of us.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
