Protect the Tech(nology)

Help me give my students the tech tools necessary to be successful in school.

My Project

My students were gifted an iPad to be able to view the weekly SEL lessons during individual and in small group settings. The expensive piece of technology needs to be protected during daily use.

The goal is to protect the iPad.

I am requesting an iPad case. One of the main benefits of an iPad case is the protection it offers from scratches, dings, and other types of damage. The case can help keep the iPad looking new by protecting it from the everyday wear and tear that will occur.

Providing and offering ear buds to our students allowing them to use them offers the children a personal space for schooling without disrupting others around them. Whether it's listening to an audiobook or taking part in an online class, the buds provide clear sound right into their ears.
