My Students

I work at a school with gifted students who have worked hard to achieve great things. We are a well-rounded school with a strong humanities-based college preparatory program. The students are passionate about writing, debate, exploration of new ideas, and finding intersections between our content and their lives.

Our brilliant, diverse students have sharp analytical minds and could be excellent scientists and engineers.

Sadly, a lot of our money goes into keeping our school's entire program running, so certain supplies are lacking in our science department. Students have mentioned that they want to be proud of their science lab. Without new, working materials, long-term investigative projects are less feasible.

We want the best science education possible for these intellectually curious young adults, and we are trying everything we can to make that a reality.

My Project

Our brilliant students are struggling to complete their chemistry and biology experiments. Our lab closet does not have enough glassware for our students to experience the laboratory as a vital part of their science learning.

To make experimentation vital again for these students, we need a full array of glassware they can use in the laboratory.

Our primary need is glass beakers, which are called for in many procedures. If we have more of these in stock, students will have more possibilities for lab activities. We will be able to challenge students, fulfill their curiosity, and set them on the path to authentic scientific discovery.
