Culture Behind the Lens
Funded May 8, 2023Thank you for your generous donation, I sincerely appreciate the support that has been given to my classroom. Your donation provides so much school culture awareness to my students. They are now able to photograph the diversity within our school and the school culture we have here at STEAM Legacy High School. Our students attend this school with pride and motivation to learn.
It is with donors like you that we can achieve so much more with our students. They can now utilize technology to create amazing projects and capture through a lens what this school is all about. My students become excited when I assign them a project that requires photographing because they know they will get the opportunity to work with a high tech camera that can take their projects to the next level.
Once again thank you for your generous donation, you have no idea how much this means to me and my students.”
With gratitude,

Funded Oct 11, 2022Thank you so much for your generous donation, my students absolutely love their new JBL Speaker. This technology has helped us improve our audio sound in our classroom. With the use of this speaker, students have been able to give presentations using the microphone that it comes with. This feature allows for my students to present with a loud clear audio. The students can add videos to their presentation and they do not have an issue displaying their videos along with great sound. This has helped my students become more efficient presenters and communicators.
What is most exciting about this product is that they can play music during the first ten minutes of class as they re quietly working on their warm up activities. This gives a welcoming environment to my classroom and at the same time the students feel a bit more relaxed as they begin their day. Students also love watching educational videos with a clear sound, something we did not have before.
Most of my students enjoy participating thanks to this speaker, they can simply use the microphone to share their answers. This features makes them more comfortable in engaging with the lesson. This has totally changed the dynamics of my classroom, I can't thank you enough.”

Funded May 9, 2022I greatly appreciate your generous donation my students now have uninterrupted lessons and our classroom has become and better learning environment because of your awesome contribution. As a teacher, I now have access to my lesson plans everywhere I go and this is a tremendous help. I can now lesson plan outside, respond to student emails, grade and provide feedback to students outside of the school setting which makes me a more prepared teacher and this absolutely benefits both me and the students. Having this technology allows me to collect digital work and have access to viewing assignments from anywhere. There were instances when I was not able to grade right away because of the lack of technology. Now my grade book is up to date and students can view their grades instantly allowing them time to reflect, and re-submit assignments.
The students are now able to use the iPad to participate in daily lessons which immediately can provide me and the student with feedback as to how the student is performing in my class. I can easily hand over the iPad to a student and ask them to answer a question and promptly revise their work. This can be visible on the screen for other students to view and learn.
Students can also utilize the iPad to search for research necessary to complete class essays. They can quickly search the web, find information and cite it as evidence for their argumentative essays. They also have access to learning applications that can facilitate the writing of these essays. The iPad allows the student to become engage as it facilitates the resources necessary to complete their projects and/or assignments.
I can't thank you enough for your generous contribution, you have made my life as a teacher so much easier.”
