Owlstars Technology

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

We are Owlstars! My class of 20 owl-some students lives in an impoverished area in which 90% are considered to be living in poverty. Yet they come to school daily, eager to learn and be their best version of themselves. A quote that we have adopted from the late Kobe Bryant, " We don't quit. We don't cower. We don't run. We endure and conquer." Despite the adversities, the Owlstars come in the class with a smile ready to face the day.

Some adversities, however, are out the hands of my students.

They are not in control of the technology they have access to, the internet they have access to, the food that is available, the activities that they can participate in. Even the most resilient students are broken down when they are unable to do what other students can do. My students are amazing and deserve the best.

My Project

Virtual learning is impossible without technology to access technology. My class will benefit from these tablets so that everyone will be connected. I will be able to teach life lessons as well as implement virtual learning activities and all students will be able to participate.

Every student needs access to technology.

Students that live in poverty should not be penalized for circumstances beyond their control. This is why I feel my students deserve the technology they need to be successful. They need to be connected to their peers in this time of need.
