My Project

In rural Shelley, Idaho, students are rooted in agriculture and have values instilled, including a hard work ethic, respect, a strong sense of community, and involvement. We are committed to ensuring our students gain academic success, despite funding cuts. As an educator, I enjoy being able to help students build strong foundational math skills, so they can improve the world and their own individual circumstances.

These calculators will empower our 7th and 8th-grade students with the technological tools necessary for success in mathematics.

This investment will provide equitable learning opportunities, deepen mathematical understanding, and prepare students for future academic challenges.
