Success Through Tech

My students need iPads in order to request transcripts for college, send test scores and to apply to college.

My Students

We have an amazing group of students who excel at school spirit and the passion to further their education along with helping others. Our community was hit by Hurricane Harvey and the devastation that some of our students faced made this year a struggle, however, many found helping others during this difficult time actually helped them during the healing process

My students are enthusiastic, diverse and unique individuals who are growing to be strong leaders.

I have found these students to be able to turn lemons in to lemonade and to rise above adversity.

They are fearless when it comes to technology and often teach me how to navigate. Integrating technology into the classroom will only help us grow stronger.

My Project

The use of iPads could be a daily activity in my classroom. Requesting transcripts, SAT/ACT scores or applying to college, they would be used all day long. The iPads will allow students to access the internet and complete the application process in quick time and to allow them to research different futures for themselves!

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase the number of students applying to college, you will ultimately help to increase the number attending by default.

Students will be able to simply focus on the application process and will have a plan in place for their future.
