Make Virtual Reality an Actual Reality for Us
Funded Nov 2, 2018I'm equal parts humbled and excited to see the goal for this project met so quickly. This is new territory for both my students and myself, and there's nothing I love about my profession quite as much as learning something concurrently with my classes. I love being able to share the wonder of the unfamiliar with other people, whether those people are my students, my kids, my wife, my parents, my friends, etc., etc. There's a lot you learn about yourself and the people around you when you get to genuinely ask questions about how and why the world works the way it does from a place of equal or near-equal footing.
Long story short, a project like this creates moments like that quite frequently, and so I'm thankful that I can now see that opportunity through to fruition!”

BEE AMAZING! Help Us Get Kindles 4 Our Spelling Champs!
Funded Mar 27, 2018Thank you to everybody that made the delivery of these Kindles possible to our Spelling Bee winners this past spring. This event is an annual tradition within our district, and we relish the ability to honor both our winners and participants. These Kindles were delivered during a celebratory dinner towards the end of last school year. We look forward to continuing and building upon our spelling bee, as well as implementing additional opportunities for our students. Feel free to follow our school's efforts on Twitter at @PS175Harlem and our district's efforts at @District5NYC.”
