Although we live in the heart of Silicon Valley, technology is still out of reach for many of our students. How frustrating is it for a student that hears that they must be ready to move ahead with technology, but only being able to see these items on TV? The students in my class are sophomores that are still unsure of the world. The experience of high school is becoming more comfortable to them, but they find that their Sophomore year requires a lot more work than they have ever seen before. My district has a variety of low and middle class families, who have struggled of late to make ends meet. I would like to give them the another access point to technology in the classroom.
