Help me give my students access to the most current computing technology available in the market. Our kiddos deserve the very best in technology, when engaged in natural curiosity and learning.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
We want to give students that same opportunity by providing them more technology to explore their thinking. By providing students the most powerful technology in the market today, we send the message to our youth that they matter. It’s all about dignity.
At GS we want our middle school students to interact with current technology and not materials that our outdated.
It is important for our kiddos to have access to the latest tech and gadgets, so that though exploration during the early years they develop the skills they will continue to use as they advance into secondary and college level academic programs.
Students will have the opportunity to check-out their MacBook Air to use during both classroom and out of school time for their learning. They will have opportunities to collect realtime data and plug it into software simulations to create various models that they can use to predict future outcomes in their own outdoor neighborhood environment. Having the right tools that work at optical speeds is exactly what we need for our students to take on the opportunities as citizen scientists in their neighborhood school’s community.
Half of 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
