The students at the school are one-of-a-kind. They love school just as much as the next child. The one thing that many of the students look forward to is coming to school as a way to escape reality for a little while. My students come from a low, socio-economic status, the inner-city, and struggle with reading and math. I need to do all I can, during school hours, to help these students progress to well-developed, smart young men and women. To effectively teach students in a wide range of levels, I need many resources. Help me bring in the necessary materials to help my students succeed in school.
The majority of the students at the school come from low-economic households.
Students and parents do not have the financial means to provide essentials and we need to help students achieve greatness.
My Project
My students need a computer that would be in use for many years and classes to come. Our project for a VR made the students super excited to experience science through virtual reality.
In a time where text message is the most popular way of communicating and telling stories, paper based learning is becoming a thing of the past.
Many students love the fact that they can use electronics to learn things like science.
The computer and the USB ports will be an important tool on the graphic aspect of teaching reading and science in my class. They will get to use the computer for research, do virtual labs through this gaming computer and experience science and reading coming to life.
More than a third 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
