Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Dear Donors,

Please help me give my students a laptop pro so that they can be more engaged in learning.

My students love researching and they are very bright so they have many questions. Please help me feed their inquisitive minds by giving them a laptop to research.

I would like to do a lesson on Patriots and Loyalists and having a computer will help us learn even more. Many of my students come from low income family and having a laptop available for their use will be very beneficial to them. I thank you in advance.

Ms. Shepherd
Grades 3-5
