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 Project

As a school counselor, I work with students providing direct services all the time. I need these tablets to help provide an alternative route for engaging my students. These tablets can be used to check in with students when receiving grades, to have students complete surveys to ensure I am collecting data after delivering a service. They will also be used by students during breaks that they may take in my office - they can use them to color or do puzzles. It's a simple resource that will serve many purposes in helping to work with the students.
