Help me give my students a microwave to warm up their lunches and an iPad so I can view their heart rates in PE class in real time with the heart rate monitors we have.

My Project
I am requesting an iPad and a microwave for use in my classroom.
I have multiple students come into my classroom daily asking to use my microwave to warm up their food.
The microwave I am currently using is over 15 years old and on its last legs. By getting a new microwave in my classroom I will be able to continue having a safe space for students to come prepare their lunch.
I am also requesting an iPad. We have 60 heart rate monitors that our students wear in PE classes to actively monitor their current heart rates. The school issued iPad I have been using doesn't hold a charge anymore, and when you're out on a football field or in a gym, it's not always possible to have the iPad plugged in. By getting a new iPad I will be able to continue to monitor students' current heart rates in real time and provide them with immediate feedback as they are participating in PE class.
