My students are beautiful and brilliant. Our class consists of multi-level learners. Our school is a high-poverty, Title I school, meaning that one hundred percent of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. A fraction of my students are homeless, and many of my other students have houses or apartments they share with one or more families. Some of my students do not have a bed to sleep on. I've noticed they are hungry in the mornings and by midday. We are an extended day school where the kids stay later than a usual school dismissal time.
Our school is located in a high-poverty neighborhood, but my students work very hard every day.
Our class has a ninety-eight percent attendance rate, which means the students rarely miss school. We value our learning time. My students come from multi-ethnic backgrounds, each with distinctive cultural traditions. In our classroom, we blend our traditions to form strong community ties.
Imagine having an assignment to do, but not having access to the materials needed to complete them. On the days you do have access to the materials, your schedule does not allow enough time to complete the work. This is a source of frustration for my students because they have resources that can help them achieve more, but they don't always have the materials or time needed to use those resources.
My students need to be able to access the online components of our reading and math programs, which allow for each student's needs to be met through individualized lessons.
They want to learn the skills that will help them succeed, but they need more time to practice and meet their goals. These Chromebooks will provide my students with the opportunity to learn at their current level of instruction and make greater progress toward their learning goals. They will also be able to use technology as a tool that will prepare them for their careers in the future. Please consider helping me provide a lifetime of opportunities for my students.
