My Project

As a second-year computer science teacher, I’m passionate about creating a classroom where students feel inspired, curious, and confident exploring technology. Last year, I learned just how important it is to have the right supplies—not only to teach core skills like coding and problem-solving, but also to make lessons engaging and accessible for every student. Many of my students don’t have access to technology at home, so our classroom becomes their gateway to learning vital digital skills. With updated supplies, I can provide meaningful, hands-on experiences that spark creativity and prepare them for real-world success. These resources would support everything from robotics and programming projects to collaborative challenges that build critical thinking. As I continue growing as an educator, I want to give my students the best tools possible to thrive in this ever-evolving field. Having the right materials isn’t just helpful—it’s essential to helping every student reach their full potential.
