Calculating With Calculators

My students need 30 calculators for classroom use.

  • $268 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I teach high school Geometry. We are currently a Title I school and many of our students cannot afford their own materials.

Our school only funds half of a classroom set of calculators. Due to the economic status of our students, many do not have money to provide their own calculator. Calculators are essential, especially when solving problems with trig ratios.

A set of 30 scientific calculators would allow EVERY student the opportunity to use a calculator. It would also allow some students to check one out for the evening so that they may complete work at home.

With your help, students will be able to be more successful not only in my class, but also in the future. When the students receive the calculators, they will be thrilled to know that people care about their futures. Several of our students do not get encouragement and support from home and I know they would be greatly appreciative for your help. THANK YOU!
