My school district is large. We have 13 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 2 high schools. I teach 8th grade history at one of those middle schools. Our district is very diverse and has many socioeconomic classes. Looking at the district a large portion of is from lower economic classes and funding has to be stretched between many buildings we are not as affluent as other neighboring districts. As a result, things like technology are often not priorities in the district. So while other school districts are handing out tablets, laptops, and other updated technology, or districts is struggling to maintain a single outdated computer lab. My students love to learn and try new things. They want to be engaged in through technology and I would love to be able to give them that opportunity every day.
