My Project

We’re building a tech-ready classroom where every student has access to headphones, working tablets, and a place to charge them. Help us stay focused, connected, and ready to learn!

My fourth graders are curious, hard-working, and full of potential.

Every day, we use technology to read, solve problems, build fluency, and strengthen our language skills. But we’re missing some key tools that would make our classroom run smoothly and help every student succeed.

I’m requesting support to fund padded over-ear headphones for reading, math, and language activities, a class set of USB-C charging cords and power strips to keep devices powered, and classroom tablets so all students can access digital learning, even during centers or small group work.

In a Title I school like ours, not every student comes with the supplies they need—but when the right tools are available, they thrive. Headphones reduce distractions. Charging cords keep lessons moving. Tablets ensure no one is left out of learning.

With your help, we can create a classroom where every student is equipped, empowered, and ready to succeed.
