STEM Connections

Help me give my students a computer to connect to the amazing STEM materials we already have!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Holden's classroom raised $1,230

This project is fully funded

My Project

We have a fully stocked amazing MakerSpace in our school! Through generous donations and grants we have been able to purchase 3D printers, vinyl cutters and other amazing hands on materials to help our students learn more about engineering and STEM.

Unfortunately, many of our new materials cannot be used or accessed because we are not able to download the correct software onto district provided tablets or laptops.

The purchase of this laptop would allow us to use the vinyl cutter, 3D printers, and Makey Makey circuits that students haven't been able to access. This would allow us to take our engineering and STEM lessons to a whole new level!
