  • Teaching via Technology

    Funded Dec 17, 2018

    Thank you so much for your contributions to our students. Your generosity will impact the development of young scientists and will not be in vain. It’s because of donors like you educators like me are able to expose more, teach more and reach more. With sincere appreciation, thank you again.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Walker

    This classroom project was brought to life by Verizon and 6 other donors.

  • Developing Future Scientists via Technology!

    Funded Jan 16, 2018

    I am so elated that you chose my students to share your generosity with. Maya Angelou quoted, “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” This statement is so relatively true and I will never forget that there are others rooting for the success of my students just as much as I am!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Walker

  • What About the Basics?!

    Funded Jan 9, 2018

    I am so thankful for people like you who not only have an interest in the success of our future (current scholars), but also the success of people like me (the teachers). Without your generous donations, simple things like writing down notes, having assignments ready (hard copies), sharpening pencils or even having pencils to sharpen would not be possible for this semester. We are wholeheartedly grateful for all acts of kindness that have been shown.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Walker

Students today will become successful scientists, engineers, doctors and scientific analysts for tomorrow. This is what I'm committed to developing even in this high poverty area! We're beating the odds, even in Jackson, MS, by turning failures into successes and giving the hopeless something to look forward to by increasing engagement. The increased use of technology within the classroom is opening doors to a world beyond the textbooks and offering a variety of more resources. This is why quality and dependable technological resources such as the Chromebooks I am requesting are needed for my classroom. I've been able to find resources like virtual labs (since we don't have laboratory resources) and interactive science activities and journals online for my students. However, because there is a need for more technology within my classroom and school, my students are not able to take advantage or use these resources. We need Chromebooks with cases and a charging cabinet.
