My Students

Our charter school is located in Madison, Tennessee. Our mission is that we believe that all children can learn and grow. We seek to educate and empower children at all levels from at risk to high achieving. With a strong foundation in basic skills, higher order thinking, and positive behavior skills SCA students will succeed.

My students are caring, friendly, and positive.

Their excitement to be all together after 18 months of hybrid and virtual school is palpable. Our students’ families choose to send them to our school for opportunities they wouldn’t have elsewhere. My classroom has a dynamic environment that focuses on well-being and growth-mindset as well as academics.

My classroom is cozy and welcoming, but small. With all students receiving 1:1 devices (Chromebooks) charging them becomes a challenge with few outlets. A charging station would help the students maintain their devices and keep them tidy.

My Project

My classroom is mighty, but small. We have a smaller classroom than most traditional public schools, but that does not stop us from achieving. Each of our students have a Chromebook that they use during the school day. One issue we have is that there are not many outlets available for students to charge their school-provided Chromebooks. We currently use power strips to help students charge them.

Having a charging cart would help give a structured space for Chromebook charging.

Students love having the opportunity to use their Chromebooks whether during testing, fluency practice, educational games, or learning Google programs such as Docs and Slides.
