Fundraiser Blog


Dear Parents:

Come and participate in our fundraiser for technology!

Get involved in your children's development by participating in the fundraiser that will help us to provide a brighter future for your child with the use of new technology in our classrooms. 

Studies show that properly used, technology will help students acquire the skills they need to survive in a complex, highly technological knowledge-based economy (Edutopia, 2008).  Our students will benefit from the implementation of technology through projects and hands-on activities.   Students will acquire and refine their analysis and problem-solving skills as they work individually and in teams.  Technology helps make teaching and learning more meaningful and fun.

The fundraising will help us to obtain a smartboard and ipads for the classroom. With the smart board and Ipads in our classrooms we will be able to explore different hands-on activiites such a digital storytelling, brainstorming, vocabulary, math, and science which will capture the child’s attention and will create a more meaningful and fun learning experience.

Parents you are more than welcome on participating in our fundraising events that will take place in our school, it is important that we get involved in our children’s education and take advantage of the tools available for their success in school.  If you have any questions please feel free to comment or post in the blog.

Thank you very much for your support,
