My Project

I want to update some of my lab equipment by obtaining a few new microscopes with updated technology. Specifically, we could use microscopes with a digital viewing screen so multiple students can evaluate a slide or specimen at one time. These will also give us the capability of taking better, close up images of various lab activities that students can then submit with their final lab document.

Microscopes are an important tool for many Biology labs.

Although we have working microscopes, the ability to update our technology and picture taking ability of labs is extremely valuable.

Mrs. Forget will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 11.
