  • Technology for Teaching!

    Funded Nov 10, 2021

    Thank you so much for the generous donation! The iMac is a reliable resource for my students to access various educational websites, virtual field trips, and Zoom with other students when needed.

    My students are able to see the slides I have prepared and will be able to hear me when I am teaching my Language Arts and Math lessons. They will be able to listen to stories I am reading, see the screen I am sharing, and view instructional videos that I am sharing. Most importantly, we will be connected to each other. If needed my students will be able to Zoom with students from home, or use the computer as a station for small group work. The possibilities for this Apple iMac is endless!

    Thank you again for making a difference in my classroom.”

  • Teacher Needs Visuals for Students!

    Funded Jul 11, 2020

    Thank you so much for your generous donation of the printer and visualizer! There is absolutely no way I could have survived teaching virtually without the vital tools you have provided me! My students have been able to follow along to many lesson being taught with the use of the visualizer. I have also been able to share many lessons that I have printed from my printer and have placed under my visualizer. Both the visualizer and printer have been used daily!!!

    This has definitely been my toughest year being a teacher. It would have been even tougher without the tools that I need to be a great teacher. Thank you so much for helping my students and myself through this tough time. We truly appreciate you!!!”

Technology is vital in educating today's students. I teach in a low income school where most of my students do not have access to a computer at home. Please help my third graders excel in their learning by giving them access to more technology.
