My Project

My students attend a school that is Title I and I believe that in order for my students to be successful they need the necessary materials and/ or technology upgrades that is efficient. Currently, my classroom has some needs, students complain about headaches coming from the lights in class that often cause them to not fully pay attention in class so I have requested light covers for my classroom that are proven to relieve the effects of fluorescent lighting.

I have also requested a laptop computer to use for classroom lectures, student notes, and student presentations.

Also added is a chair that offers flexible seating in our classroom. I have great students who work extremely hard in the classroom and want only the best for them and they will use these items as well as items that our classroom has previously received from Donors Choose. Thank you in advance.
