Now, thanks to you, our devices are safely stored, efficiently charged, and always ready when students need them.\r\n\r\nBecause of your gift, we are able to transition smoothly into lessons that use technology for research, writing, math practice, and interactive learning activities. My students can independently access and return their laptops, which has strengthened their responsibility and ownership of classroom routines.
