My Project

We are a Title I school with a predominantly Hispanic students. My students are from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds but often thrive and grow!

The Oculus will provide my students with the opportunity to venture beyond their local community and into a world they can often just imagine!

Imagine seeing a rainforest or a tundra without leaving the classroom!

"Think of it as a magical crayon: you can draw something, make it move, and then play with it. This is knowledge coming to life, an abstract concept moving from the theoretical to the practical." -Oculus
