My Students

I have the pleasure of teaching US History and Computer Science Principles to juniors and seniors at a public high school in Newark, NJ. No matter what obstacles my students face on a daily basis, from being teenage parents, to raising siblings, or even being homeless they always come to class excited and eager to learn. However, they are deprived of some of their basic needs.

In the city of Newark, many students residing in the West Ward live below the poverty line.

The high school where I teach is located in the West Ward. We are a Title I school where 80% of our students qualify for free or reduced lunches.

This board will increase the likelihood of engagement of my students virtually and once we are able to return to in-person instruction. While teaching virtually, I can teach lessons using this board and my students will be able to clearly see the lesson using Webex and Google Classroom. When we are able to return to the classroom, my students will be able to work collaboratively together since 4 students can write simultaneously and they can utilize this board to share presentations with their classmates remotely from their seats.

My Project

My students previously this year were blessed with a Flip 2 Board through a separate DonorsChoose campaign. I am beyond grateful for this donation and am now requesting this stand to allow me to mount this board. The design of my classroom only allows for the mounting of the board on one wall. That wall currently is filled with a white board. It is important for this board to be mounted in order for me to continue to have full use of my white board for teaching my students. Mounting this board will also allow my students to use the board both vertically and horizontally. Additionally, the stand will allow me to move the board from classroom to classroom.
