Investor

Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.

PTA Equity Partnership - $325.99

Project Goal

To purchase a hotspot so that students can use Canvas for reading and writing lessons without being confined to the classroom. In addition, the goal is to purchase a webcam so that students who have opted to participate in E-learning can still be a part of the class by viewing the lesson in real time.

How Project Benefits Students

Students are able to still learn and grow while maintaining a safe distance from their peers. Students can use their school issued laptops to still complete assignments, participate in Nearpod activities and upload Flipgrid responses.

Expected Outcome(s)

Increase student achievement and participation. Decrease the risk of students contracting COVID 19 by being outdoors and maintaining a safe distance from each other that might not be able to achieve inside the classroom.
