Help me give my students more academic and social-emotional counseling time by saving me time serving in my other role as the school tech support.

Working at a charter school means taking on multiple roles. I serve as the middle school counselor and assist the entire school with technology support. Unfortunately, due to the recent changes in education caused by the pandemic, I spend more time with technology than I do counseling students. As a title one charter school, most of our students perform below grade level and require academic and emotional support. The counseling is needed more now than ever as a result of the new stresses of hybrid learning, and being out of school for a year and a half. We are a community-eligible school (charter) with over 90% of our students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.
Our students and families choose our school because we honor diversity and inclusion, and they enjoy the ideas we present as a community.
We will continue to adapt and overcome the challenges that we face and continue to provide the best education and culture we can for the students
My project will save time on my responsibilities for technology support and allow me to offer more counseling support to Quest students. The laptop will allow me to be mobile when supporting student’s social-emotional needs. The laptop will offer freedom from being restricted to a particular room, allowing me to offer portable group counseling to assist students with coping skills, anxiety, self-esteem, and academic support. A laptop will allow me to offer counseling support resources that are online, such as support videos, PowerPoints that I have created for students, and access to student grades and credit information in every classroom! The laptop will assist me supporting parents as well, whether for online video conferencing or in person, where I can assist them with online resources. Please invest in me, so I can invest in them. Thank you for your consideration and support.
