I teach Social Studies in a Title I New York City Public School. I have students of all different backgrounds that come to my school to not only get a "traditional" education but also a career and technical education as we are the only CTE school in the area. Although my students come from all over the island and even some from other boros, the majority of my students come from low income homes and often help to care for their younger siblings putting their own needs and wants to the side. This includes school supplies. I would like to provide my students with Chromebooks so that they can interact with the curriculum, have videos, maps, and other documents at their fingertips. My ENL students can translate specific words, and students with disabilities can view images that will allow them to better understand the material. My students work extremely hard to achieve their goals many with the odds against them. Please help my students achieve success in their educational careers as well as help them to fully engage in their learning.
