My Project

My gifted students are some of the most curious, driven, and creative young minds I’ve ever worked with. They constantly ask deep questions, think outside the box, and take initiative in their learning. What I love most about them is their passion—not just for academics, but for making a meaningful impact in the world. Many of them are first-generation college hopefuls, and all of them are hungry for opportunities to grow and succeed.

Providing them with MacBook Pros will be transformative.

These laptops will give my students the freedom to explore advanced digital tools for coding, graphic design, video production, and data analysis—skills that are essential in today’s tech-driven world. With these resources, they’ll be able to create college-ready portfolios, apply for scholarships, collaborate on innovative projects, and access online learning platforms that further enrich their education.

We are seeking funding to provide MacBook Pro laptops to our gifted students in order to support their academic growth, enhance their digital literacy, and empower them in the college application process. These tools will allow students to develop innovative digital projects, explore advanced software applications, and build essential 21st-century skills.

Goals and Objectives:

1. Equip gifted students with MacBook Pros to foster creativity and technical proficiency.

2. Support the creation of digital portfolios and multimedia projects that showcase their talents.

3. Provide tools that facilitate research, writing, and submission of college applications.

4. Enhance students' access to college preparatory programs, online coursework, and scholarship opportunities.

This support will directly contribute to their success in postsecondary education and careers in technology, design, engineering, and the arts.

For students who dream big but face limited resources, a MacBook Pro is more than just a computer—it’s a launchpad for opportunity, creativity, and confidence.
