FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gould's classroom raised $648

My Project
My students are some of the most hardworking people that I know. They work to overcome all of the obstacles that come their way. Unfortunately, a lot of them are lacking some basic skills that hold them back.
A calculator shouldn't be the barrier to higher mathematical concepts.
These calculators would allow my students to worry about the more advanced content, while being secure that the arithmetic that they are completing isn't holding them back. Our goal in our classroom is that together we can learn anything. These calculators would allow my students to reach their goals.
More than three‑quarters 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
