FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Holcomb's classroom raised $596

My Students

I teach at a Title I School in East Texas. We are a small community school and we are limited on materials. However, our school serves a free breakfast every morning to ensure that all students receive the nutrition they need to start the day.

I want my students to have all the materials they need to better their education.

I am a 2nd-grade teacher. My classroom consists of a wide variety of diverse students that come from small towns. They are a bright group of kids who are eager to learn and I want them to be able to walk into my classroom and feel excited about what is in store for them that day. Because they are from a small town, they feel the need to challenge themselves to the max to show their full potential. This is something we encourage at BES because we know that our students are capable of accomplishing anything they set their minds too.

My Project

Although there is no extra money for providing technology in the classroom, we try our best to keep up with the times. Unfortunately, old DINOSAUR computers in the classroom aren't cutting it anymore. This is why we need new Chromebooks! The new laptops will provide my students with the opportunity to research topics being taught in class, and will also allow them to type and publish their personal writing pieces. We can do math, reading and spelling games. We can also take AR tests. The laptop will be used by all students, and will definitely be utilized in all academic areas.

Everyone knows how it feels to be without technology when it is needed.

Whether it be a phone, a computer, or a laptop, technology is necessary when looking up information or learning new things. Especially with my TECH savvy students! We are in desperate need of new laptops will make learning FUN! PLEASE help us!
