My Project

The pandemic shifted the way all schools work. Here at our middle school, we are heavily focused on personalized learning. Everyone knows how the pandemic has set students back and knows schools are doing everything they can to close those gaps. We are utilizing small groups, digital instruction, content review tools, and accelerated learning to help reach students where they are and build them up to grade level. We have gotten multiple Chromebooks donated through DonorsChoose, but we are just missing one thing: chargers.

Currently in my classroom, there is a large table covered in a mass of chargers, constantly getting tangled and taking up two electric extensions.

This charging station could clear up that clutter and open up outlets for use again.

With your support, we will be able to keep all of our devices charged and ready to use! Thank you!
