Students Work Best In An Engaging & Organized Environment!

Help me give my students a comfortable independent work station. My students are an amazing group that are currently in an under resourced district. All my students are very eager to take advantage of technology which is essential.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. McDougald's classroom raised $820

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We are requesting items to build the perfect independent work station which will help to improve my student's test scores. One of the major issues that I have is that not only do I have to share computers, but often when I get them they do not work or are broken. With the new station, students will take pride in their work environment.

Students will now have the ability everyday to access and work on online assignments to enhance their learning experience.

With aid of these materials, students will be able to access to a permanent station in the classroom that they can use solely in the classroom. They will be able to use the station to use online resources to explore science concepts and explore science labs.
