Help Our Students Achieve Greatness

My students need a document camera to do all the things that will make them successful in this 21st century learning environment.

My Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I want to provide my students with positive and meaningful learning experiences.

Many of my students are being raised in single parent households or by their grandparents and receive a free lunch and breakfast due to their socioeconomic status.

These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical". I want the best for my students and see each of them become successful in life.

My Project

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to work or not.

Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology.

Your generous donation to our project will improve our third grade classroom by building a stronger scholar.

This will change our students' lives for the better. They will love school and feel success as they have fun learning!
