EHS Samsung Solve for Tomorrow

Funded Jun 28, 2023

On behalf of Eastlake High School I would like to extended our appreciation to the Donors Choose community and Samsung Electronics America for the generous award.

The award was distributed to multiple departments within the school that needed a replenishment of supplies, both in the field of technology and every day essential classroom items.

The science department used the award for much needed upgrades in classrooms and workspaces used by teachers and students. Each of our science classes have reached a maximum capacity and it is essential to get enough class sets of items such as calculators, whiteboards, and modeling items. With the award we were able for each student or small group to have the materials they need in a lab and/or discussion based setting. In addition, one of our classrooms has visual accessibility issues and the monitor purchased with the award allows all students, no matter where they are in the classroom, to see what is projected on the Smart Board. We are also looking forward to the installation of the new washer and dryer in the science department so we can minimize the use of paper towels in a lab setting.

The broadcast communications program loves the new screens and storage devices we got from Samsung. The screens help our editors do more precise and sophisticated editing that cannot be accomplished on a laptop. The storage devices have relieved an expense burden from a lot of students since they would normally have to buy their own. This award was a huge help to our program and the payoff is seen weekly on our broadcasts.

Thank you again for supporting the work of teachers and students.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Okroy
