    This laptop is definitely bridging the gap by allowing my students to code. They are very excited to learn to code a robot that they have assembled in our classes. Coding has opened their eyes to what they can and will be able to do in the future and why technology is key to succeed.

    We have been reviewing angles, negative numbers and making calculations and experimenting through trial and error in order to complete coding tasks.

    This laptop has been a wonderful and much needed addition to our robotic classes and we truly thank you for that.

My students are mostly on free and reduced lunch. This means that they are in a Title I school surrounded by a very needy and transient population. This tool will be instrumental in providing a window to the world of language, science, and mathematics. It will be a research tool for my students to succeed and to compete in this global village. Since I teach multiple grades, this donation will have a tremendous impact due to vast number students that I teach daily.
