My students need Windows 7 and a 500GB hard drive to be prepared for college.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Frady's classroom raised $262
This project is fully funded
We are a small school in a rural community in Southwest Arkansas. We focus on college preparation, but also have programs to help the student who wishes to go directly into the workforce after graduation. The class I would like these materials for is a Yearbook class. I strive to have the most up to date media for my yearbook. Several of my student have benefited from having knowledge of the most recent computer operating systems and publishing programs. Because they are trained in many publishing programs, several of my students have received work study scholarships working on their college yearbooks. This has helped them to pay for college expense. I have also had one student go to work in an office using the skill they learned in yearbook.
The publishing world is changing, and we need to keep up with it. My students need the latest programs in order to be ready for college and work. Colleges and workplaces have the newest programs, and if my students are already trained in these programs, they have a better chance of succeeding. Also, they need a reliable, secure place to store their projects.
We need to upgrade our computers to the newest operating system. We also need a reliable storage drive to keep our projects safe.
You can help these students be successful adults. With your help, we can give these kids a skill that will improve their college experience or make them better prepared to enter the workplace.
