My Students

Link our students to the world of technology! 21st Century skills are imperative for our youth!

Our students have recently become finalists in a contest to win $100,000 for technology for our school, they desperately need more access to computers.

In our high school there is one computer for every twenty-nine students! Most of these computers are located in the often over-crowded library.

My Project

In my world history classroom, I have created a website for my students to use as a resource and the school has given them access to their grades online, yet the students have a hard time finding a computer to use to get this information. A computer in our world history classroom would link the students to information that they long to have!

My job is to prepare student for a SUCCESSFUL future.

This computer would give them one more tool to achieve that success. Please help us reach our goal of having one computer for students to use in my classroom.
