My Project

My pride and joy are my students. They try their hardest every day when they attend school. Despite having a variety of learning impairments, my students are not defined by them. They want to graduate and make a difference in the world. I want to make sure my students have the tools necessary to succeed in the classroom. In our classroom, technology plays a crucial role in learning, with many assignments and activities requiring the use of devices. However, one of the biggest challenges we face is ensuring that students' devices remain charged throughout the school day.

A mobile charging station would provide a centralized, accessible solution for students to recharge their devices, ensuring they can fully participate in lessons, complete assignments, and access essential learning tools without interruptions.

This resource would eliminate the distraction and frustration of low battery issues, allowing students to stay focused and engaged. By keeping devices powered, we can create a more seamless and productive learning environment for everyone.
