Connecting To The World With Wireless Connection

My students need a wireless connection to upload projects and to interact with our Smartboard using wireless devices.

My Students

We are a very low income school district that has limited technology funds. We are incorporating many different technological advancements in our classroom to reach all learning styles, but could use some help in obtaining materials. A wireless router would allow us to utilize school laptops.

Our students are very hardworking, motivated, and well rounded kids.

We are just now breaking through with some technological devices; however, we could do so much more with a wireless router. Thus far, my students have done picture slide shows, animoto videos, photo peach, Smart interactive software, interactive websites, Geocaching, glogs, etc. However, we could really utilize wireless technology to increase efficiency within the classroom. We would really appreciate any support you could give at this time. Thank you.

My Project

A lot of our students do not have technology in their homes due to financial concerns. We as a district want to enhance our children's knowledge of the technological world around them. We also strive to reach all styles of learning to ensure student success. We will be able to utilize school laptops to complete projects, respond interactively to lessons, and have a constant feedback of student participation and level of understanding.

Thank you so much for even considering our small school.

We have such dedicated families and students in our district, and your donation would help us to become even more independent and successful adults.
