My Project

With the ever-changing educational setting and the progression toward digital learning, communication with families and the constant use of digital platforms having a functioning laptop or computer has become a necessity. The laptop will be used to create presentations for potential donors to support our students in temporary housing. The laptop will be used to assist them in connecting to the constantly changing technological community and provide opportunities to help supply digital resources to our students in temporary housing.

Being a building social worker, it is important that I am able to have access to various digital platforms both at school and at home.

This laptop will allow me to have a functioning laptop that can be used at home and in school. I can also use the many awesome features, such as iMovie to showcase our school and the various community outreach activities and programs we host or participate in.
