I am overwhelmed by the generosity of everyone to help my students and I get the chrome books we needed. They are going to love the gift you have given them. They enjoy sharing and learning on the old computers in our classroom, but will be thrilled to have nice new ones that work so well. We have had 3 computers not working for 2 weeks now, and it has been hard to share the few that are still working. I can't wait to see their faces when they get their new ones! I am so surprised by everyones goodness and support. Thank you so much!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Sparks
This classroom project was brought to life by An Anonymous Funder and 18 other donors.

I teach in a Title 1 school. I have 26 students and 95 % of my students receive free/reduced services. My classroom has several ethnicities. They love exploring and learning. Only a few of them have computers or tablets in their homes to access learning resources. Those who don't have access to technology want so much to get on the computers and practice reading and math skills in Lexia, Moby Math, and StarFall. I can only assign a few students at a time and only during certain times of the day, because I only have 3 working computers, and 3 mini laptops. They are very old and slow running. They take a very long time to upload. It can be very frustrating, so this does not allow them to get much practice/fun time learning with technology. Next year we will have new reading and math programs that incorporate technology. I would really like to have either some tablets or chrome books for more students to gain access.
