My Project

My students are seniors who are attempting to regain lost credits by taking online courses in place of classes they failed in their early high school years. While they have school-supplied laptops, they are often unable to continue working in class due to lack of a properly working laptop charger. The supplies I am requesting will help students stay logged in all period without having to worry about battery life. My goal is for students to finish all their credit-recovery courses by April so they will be on track to graduate in May. My students are dedicated to ensuring that they will graduate, and I want to make sure they have all the essentials (chargers, headphones, translator) to make them successful.
