Help me give my students a safe way to store their cell phones during the school day.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McGough's classroom raised $265
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
In middle school, most of the students bring their phones to school. Technology at our fingertips can be completely distracting. To eliminate this distraction we collect the students' phones each morning.
These cell phone storage cases will give us a more secure and organized way to hold the phones in the classroom.
We have seen a huge difference in engagement and a lot less silly drama during the school day without the phones in hand. We want to continue to allow the students to focus on their education without being distracted.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
