My Project

My middle school students are kids who want to learn. They love learning and continue to strive even through the struggles. They missed out on so much of their 5th-grade year due to COVID-19. Their 6th-grade year was spent learning online and wearing masks. Now we are in a normal school year!

Our current calculators at school do not function perfectly, 100% of the time.

My students would benefit immensely from having functioning calculators. By 8th grade, they are learning more complex math concepts and truly need working technology.

I know that my students will be so ecstatic to have new calculators to use!
