We are a K-6 school. I teach third grade. My students come from a low socioeconomic background. They have limited life experiences and are at-risk students, but I know they are bright and capable of doing anything. They are eager to learn. They come to school daily with smiles on their faces with daily homework completed, waiting to learn. I am so proud of them and how hard my students work each day. For this reason I am hoping I can get one laptop for my class.
