The excitement on their faces when the packages arrived and when they were available to use was priceless. \r\n\r\nThe project was funded just in time to help get us through our big push of testing on Chromebooks and our end of the year projects. Having access to a mouse and mouse pad made testing and projects less frustrating for students who have difficulty using a touch pad. It was a lot easier to navigate around on the Chromebooks while completing testing, research, and creating Google Slide presentations. \r\n\r\nThank you again for the generous donations towards my project.
