My Project

Help me give my students updated iPads that will allow them to access the world around them. Technology is growing and ever changing. Unfortunately our iPads that are almost 10 years old are out of date, which limits students' access. We are fortunate to have the ever growing technology and supports that are able to meet students' needs.

I need your help in getting updated technology to help support my students.

With your help and support we will be able to purchase two new, updated iPads. These iPads will be utilized to access core curriculum, supports needed to enable students to engage meaningfully with their peers and those in the environment around them, and access technology supports such as text to speech and speech to text, that will enable them to be more successful.
