Computers For My Classroom

The Description

The current computers in my classroom are outdated and must be discarded.  Our school district will not replace the computers and new ones must be purchased at the school level.  We are a Title I school and we do not have the funds to equip each classroom.  Therefore, I am seeking for PledgeCents to replenish the computers in my classroom so that I can continue to use instructional technology rotations.

My students need as much exposure to technology as possible and without computers in the classroom, they will not have the opportunity to practice the necessary computer skills that they will need post high school.  We currently have to share the few working computers that we have in order to get assignments completed.  It is very difficult to do lab simulations for my science class or watch educational resources with everyone crowded around just a few computers.

I will be purchasing a minimum of 10 HP laptop computers and the license to use the Microsoft Office programs.  The estimated cost per computer is $500.

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal I will purchase...as many computers as I can with the funds that I collect.
