This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. S. from Desloge, MO is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know! Inquiring Minds Need to Know!

My students and I need 2 Toshiba laptop computers, a color printer, one black and three colored ink cartridges, and two packages of photo paper.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. S.'s classroom raised $1,696

This project is fully funded

Have you traveled the world and the seven seas? Well, I haven't, and neither have any of my curious third grade students. Not yet, that is! With gracious contributions from individuals such as yourselves, my students will begin to travel and explore the world tomorrow. Every year I teach a class of third grade students. They are all curious about the world and what it has to offer. Our school district offers limited technology resources that keep my students from gaining the knowledge needed to be productive in today's society. I want them to have access to the tools needed to open the world up to their curious minds.

My present and future third grade students will be left behind without the tools needed to allow them hands-on experience with the technology of today's society. Their inquiring minds are eager to explore whatever I place at their fingertips. I want them to have the ability and necessities to become productive life-long learners in the world of technology.

We need 2 laptop computers with a colored printer, 2 colored and black ink cartridges, and 2 packages of photo paper. The items I have listed will be the stepping-stone that will enlighten 20+ inquiring minds to a world beyond their imaginations. With the resources requested my students will begin to develop skills and the knowledge needed to be confident in our high-tech world. This will enable them to explore and discover the world that exist around them.

I want to thank you today and every day for taking the time to read this information. Through your efforts and generosity my students will be given the tools, skills, and opportunities that are pertinent to the foundation and development of our HIGH-TECH WORLD. The success of 20+ inquiring minds lies in your hands! THANK YOU!!

Mrs. S. Parkside Elementary School Grades 3-5
