The Empowerment Academy’s Library/Media Center is being updated to meet the needs of the students in the 21st century. We understand that having an updated space will provide an environment that is conducive for everyone to collaborate, create and explore. In addition to becoming a 21st century library, we know the importance of creating a space that promotes and encouraged a strong literacy foundation.
Therefore, we are seeking 6 – 8 iPads that can be utilized by our students in a small group setting. Having these electronic devices will afford students an opportunity to build and enhance their literacy skills by reading electronic books that are age and grade-level appropriate, practice their literacy skills (reading and writing) using various educational platforms, as well as conducting research for various class projects that will aid them in becoming life-long learners. Furthermore, students will also have an opportunity to explore in coding and digital designs.
We thank you in advance for considering our project.
