My Students

Our school is a Title I school and 100% of our students receive free lunch. My students are excited about science. All of my students want to learn how to incorporate more STEM in their science classroom. They are well rounded curious young people and have great ideas. Our students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds and few can afford access to technology. I use technology in the classroom to advance their knowledge of science education.

We believe in growth and strive to help these curious youngsters in their educational journeys.

My goal is to assist my students reach their maximum potential while mastering their content.

My Project

My students need these requested three Apple iPad Mini 2 tablets to increase their knowledge in science education, while exposing them to STEM focused careers and preparing them for high school. Our students will use the iPad mini tablets to help solve real-world problems in their classrooms and communities. They will be able to use the iPads minis during our small group and station learning for science research and investigations.

Your generous donation to our project will improve our 8th grade classroom by building a stronger stem focused scientists.

The dynamic of our classroom will change forever, increasing students engagement and their level of appreciation for school. I am positive your help will change our students' lives for the better.
