My Project

In today’s classroom, having the right tools significantly affects how students learn and engage.

Essential items like Chromebook chargers, calculators, and markers may seem small, but they play a significant role in helping students succeed every day.

Chromebooks are used in many subjects; however, they’re only helpful when powered. Having extra Chromebook chargers ensures that students can stay connected and productive.

Calculators are another key tool, especially in math and science classes. Having enough calculators means every student can participate fully in classwork and assessments.

Finally, markers are used across the curriculum, from labeling and organizing group work to creating colorful visuals and interactive anchor charts. They encourage creativity, collaboration, and hands-on learning, especially for visual and kinesthetic learners.

These supplies support a well-equipped, inclusive, and efficient classroom where all students can stay engaged and prepared. Donations of these items make a difference in our students’ learning experience.
