My Project

Technology is the future, and with early access to STEM/STEAM it will allow our students to soar to new heights.

Our school has been designated as a STEM school by Memphis Shelby County Schools, but we are a Title 1 school, and our technology is old, and funding is nonexistent.

With the Mac minicomputers this will allow my students to use technology like Garageband, iMovie, and coding programs we cannot access on the student devices. Likewise using the Kindle Fire tablets will allow them to learn how to build apps on an android platform. Other items, such as the Lakeshore Easy-View Early Science Kits will be a great addition as well.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
