Recently one of our teachers lost their projector bulb for the SMARTboard when it wore out. The school will not provide a new one and there isn't a way that she can buy a new one with her funds. We really need to find a proactive way to provide materials that will help our students learn and provide them, our teachers and our school with tools that match our devotion to education.
       Our new Physical Education Teacher approached me, and reminded me of the need we have in obtaining materials for our students in the area of Physical Education. Our equipment is slowly deteriorating with wear and tear, and with no funds to replace old broken and dilapidated equipment, our students are sadly receiving backlash from this system that doesn't stay updated with time.  
       In an effort to provide one way, I am setting up a Donor's Choose Website. Although the project is in infancy, eventually I want to be able to ask for a need that is worthy of our community and to be able to have individuals help us.

       It is sad that education in America requires donations, and sadly the money that is tied to education is usually politically entwined with government regulations and reserved for districts that don't need, but have a good representative. Sadder still is the lack of commitment to the actual education of the student, or more politically correct the children are denied a World Class Education because of the apathy that allows this system to continue  . . .
