Funded May 14, 2024Overall, technology has empowered our students to become more independent, engaged, and effective learners, preparing them for success in an increasingly digital and interconnected world. The most exciting aspect of new educational technology for students often revolves around its interactivity and engagement. Students are drawn to the interactive and dynamic nature of these innovations. The ability to learn in a way that feels more like play can be particularly enticing to students. This allows them to explore topics beyond the scope of traditional textbooks and encourages independent research and critical thinking. For all of these reasons we say thank you for supporting our children.”

Funded Apr 7, 2022We have had a couple home games and the stencils have been a blessing. The field looks like a professional field, the kids know how to line up and it is easy to locate the yard line.
