My fifth grade middle school students live in a high poverty town on the brink of bankruptcy. The children come from hard working, loving families who are struggling to make ends meet. Despite these circumstances, they come to school happy and ready to learn each day! Fortunately, a few parents are able to provide devices which students are allowed to utilize in the classroom. I am attempting to level the playing field for less fortunate children. An added bonus will be increased participation and motivation for all!
