What type of future will our students behold? My goal is to inspire students to prepare themselves to dream and problem solve for their future aspirations. I am a teacher from a small school in Milan, Indiana; aka the movie, Hoosiers. Here at Milan, we dream big. Students are encouraged to think of a problem they want to solve and then with your help. We get materials to create hands-on projects that inspire students to become adults with skills that will encourage them to always problem solve regardless of their future careers. I lead a student genius bar and our first problem that the students wanted to solve was "How do we create a platform where our students get a message?" They are currently creating a website with a student vlog to solve this problem. Donor's choose helped purchase the equipment. Will you help us with our next problem we want to solve?
