My Project

This laptop will help my students with working on projects and presentations. An apple product is needed many times an this would be very beneficial for us in this junior high classroom. The students work on projects and presentations to prepare themselves for what they will do in high school.This MacBook Air laptop would be very helpful in their small group projects and presentations.

We are a very small school in a very small county and any help we get is so very appreciated.

This would be of such great use in this classroom!
