All Students Deserve Equal Access

Funded Dec 21, 2019

Thank you so much for your belief in education and for your personal investment and sacrifice! My students have been more engaged, communication and clarity has increased, differentiation has been simplified, and learning has increased more than believable.

With the devices YOU helped supply the most recent unit exam student scores in World History increased by 8 percentage points; American History by 6 percent, and Civics by an astounding 11 percentage points. With my ability to track students progress, along with digitally observe work instantaneously, students are able to receive specialized tutoring and assistance.

Parker, 9th grade student with special educational needs, stated after realizing her differentiated assignment was only seen by her, "Mr. Whaples nobody knows my work looks different now. I feel like I'm just like all the other students." Lida, a 16 year old student just adopted from the Ukraine with limited language said, "I can now do my work. The computer translates for me." Her mom, with tears just said, "Thank you!"

In writing this note and update, with tears streaming down my cheek, may I echo Lida's Mom..... THANK YOU!”

With gratitude,

Mr. Fred Whaples
