Classroom Wishlist is a monthly Idaho Lottery Do Good program that allows teachers to submit their classroom wishes to be fulfilled. With the help of our players, the Idaho Lottery funds up to $10,000 in classroom needs every month!
FEATURED STORY:
Congratulations to Buhl High School!
Laptops and computer supplies for Jeff Margulieux
Within our high school robotics elective our students are able to apply technology and science concepts through engaging hands-on projects as they work together to build and design a robot. Each year our students design and build an amazing robot and compete in FIRST Robotics Competition, an inspirational and challenging program for high school students in which they learn and incorporate crucial STEM skills. In addition to building, students are responsible for coding the robot for both autonomous commands and a “teleoperated” mode in which they will use xbox controllers to maneuver the robot. For programing and robot communication requirements, we need dedicated laptops rather than students’ chromebooks. We would like to purchase two new laptops for Java programming that will replace our singular outdated laptop and allow more students to code together at the same time.
