The fifteen TI-83 graphing calculators will be used every day in our math classes. The upper-level classes have been using the calculators for the past ten years, but with your donation, the lower-level classes will also have access to the technology. With the transition to Common Core mathematics, students have been given larger, real-world problems that require technology at an earlier age. Introducing graphing calculators in the ninth grade means that by eleventh grade, class time does not need to be spent on how to use the technology. During this crucial year, the focus can be on learning mathematics. Giving low-income students access to new technology is an investment in their future. These graphing calculators allow students to tackle larger and more complex math problems, which will prepare them for college-level work.
