Wish Delivered: Chromebook Charger Carts

This Wishlist will provide a Chromebook charging cart to three different classrooms. Mrs. Marshall says,” This grant will be funding 3 laptop carts for Mrs. Marshall. Mrs. Kohli and Mrs. Adams' classrooms. With twenty-two students, twenty-two laptops and twenty two charging cords, it is hard to not end up with tangled cords, lost laptops or laptops that are not charged. Our building is older and has very few outlets for the students to charge their computers. This will allow us to place charging stations in our rooms, giving outlet access for every laptop to always be charged and ready to go. We will have less distractions with students moving around trying to charge their laptops, and more time to focus on their work. These carts will help to keep students (and the teachers) organized, charged up, and ready to learn!”

Wish Delivered: Snow Boots

Teacher Tori McDonald  says "Many of our families struggle to purchase winter attire for their children. As our school counselor, I try my bet to find resources that will help our students stay warm and dry our cold and wet Fall and Winter months. These snow boots would be a great start to helping ensure our students have dry feet as they play outside."
