Help Me Communicate With My Students
Funded Jan 27, 2021
Thank you so much for supporting my students. At such a challenging time for educators it's awesome to know you're all on our side. Remote and hybrid teaching models have been so difficult for my students, and the cost of technology to make graphics is prohibitive. This will energize the creativity of my students and really help them support 9th graders who are having a terrible, pandemic style introduction to high school.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Batke
This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 10 other donors.

I'm struggling to communicate with my students because, like most teachers, I'm using outdated technology. What makes it even more frustrating is that I'm teaching a new leadership course this year where juniors mentor freshmen all year long. It's a powerful program, but my students need to be able to create engaging content for the 9th graders and we don't have the resources. This IPad can travel from apartment to apartment each week for the student leaders to use to create high-quality graphics and teaching materials. It's such a challenging time, and I am passionate about making sure this leadership course is as effective as it can possibly be, even though it's virtual.
