My Project

Students in my EAST and G/T classes utilize sophisticated technology to address problems in our community. Working with experts in multiple fields, my EASTlings will identify an area of concern or development they want to work on during the school year. Collaborating with community partners, EASTlings will use technology to complete their project.

With access to this Apple Mac Mini, our obsolete desktops can be revitalized for continued use on our EAST projects.

The technology in our classroom is not compatible with current needs (i.e., Windows 11). With your generous donations, we can continue to utilize the existing hardware and update it to meet the requirements for use in our school district and state.
