I am a 7th grade math teacher who loves her job. I am employed in a rural, small, close knit community. My school is a high need school where 90% of my kids eat free or reduced lunch. At the ages of 12-13 in 7th grade, my students tend to need a high degree of motivation. Motivation has become a high priority in my classroom because of the high dropout rate in Mississippi. Most of my students have mentioned dropping out of school when they reach the legal age. Being able to supply a multifunctional printer and flash drives allows students to enjoy their experience in learning about data analysis. Black and white is dull; therefore, my students need the experience of seeing their best work collections in exciting colors.
