My Students
My students represent many cultures from around the world. Our school is 100% free lunch and we have a large immigrant and refugee population. My students are highly motivated and highly passionate about STEM. They love hands on experiences and are interested in all things technology and engineering, especially robotics and real world technology. I hope to inspire my students to continue their education in STEM fields and STEM careers by creating a rigorous physical science, engineering, and computer science program where we combine science with creativity.
My Project
My students are passionate about engineering and STEM. They are curious learners who enjoy hands-on challenges and experiences. Using the materials in this project, my students will explore the world of electrical engineering, preparing them for new and exciting careers in the digital age.
The Arduino starter kits will allow my students to explore and experiment with electronics and apply what they are learning about coding.
They will learn to connect the digital and physical worlds with real electrical engineering experiences. We will design circuits, learn to collect data using sensors, experiment with breadboards, and many other great engineering challenges. Adding additional capacitors and resistors will allow us to expand our kits to build more complex projects.
These electronics kits will allow my students to prepare for an ever-changing world and allow them the flexibility to explore on their own.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
