My Students

We have a great group of students at our school. We have several economically disadvantaged families, but our students work hard to learn and grow academically. We have been recognized as a reward school for the past two years due to our students hard work and growth.

My Project

It would be great to add this magnetic dry erase whiteboard to our classroom. This board would replace a current white shower board over an old chalkboard. The current shower board is not magnetic and does not erase well at all. The shiny new white board would allow for great student interaction and a fun and clean place to learn. This board would also allow for our students to better see content during instruction and would make a great screen for projecting classroom lessons and resources. I appreciate your time and consideration.
