Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My school is a small rural school located in St. Martinville, Louisiana. We currently have 563 students. The school consists of 70.7% African Americans, 25.9% white students, 2.6% Latino, and .7% Hispanic. Our students come from very economically disadvantaged families who struggle to provide basic needs for their children.

My school serves students in grades 2-5 and provides rigorous academics, fantastic teachers and a safe learning environment for students.

My school is a Leader in Me School and a STEM school.

My Project

My students need three tablets and three protective cases to complete STEM activities that require specific apps that are only found on Android devices. With these tablets, my students will participate in STEM computer science activities involving coding apps. While this is incredibly exciting, we do not have compatible tablets to use for the sphere robots. In order to get the most use out of our new robots, we need to ensure that the students can program their robots with a compatible tablet so that they can test their coding skills in real life activities! Please help us expand our robotics lessons and give my students a meaningful education.
