My Project

My students lack resources that students that other schools receive. Having computers in their classroom will enable them to keep up with students across the world.These laptops will expose our students to current technology on a regular basis within the classroom. Interactive lessons require the use of laptops.

Students will use these computers to do project based activities related to reading, math, science, interventional support programs, history and present day government and policies.

As our students move closer to high school and the world outside of school they will be required to have word processing skills, online research skills, and many other technology related skills. The students will receive far more engaging lessons and gain a better understanding of what and why we are learning and the impact on their future . The sooner we expose them, the greater the chance of success.

This will be the start they need to succeed in our technology driven society. They will be better prepared to take on the leadership roles in the future of government, policies and the world.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
