Item Description
As you know, part of ensuring that students have access to a truly progressive education is providing them with a variety of learning tools. At Cascade Canyon School, we are fortunate to have a robust supply of theater and art materials as well as an array of musical instruments, hand tools, 3D printers, and robots. These tools allow students to engage in hands-on learning, while also making it possible for us to put on incredible events throughout the year, including the Variety Show, Poetry Festival, Spring Concert, and STEAM Fair.
This year's Fund-A-Need is seeking to broaden our set of tools, with most of the money going towards purchasing two classroom sets of Chromebooks -- one for the elementary and one for the middle school -- as well a few Mac desktop and laptop computers to replace those that were purchased several years ago and need to be replaced.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with them, Chromebooks are lightweight, inexpensive computers.They allow students to produce work in multiple forms, such as documents, slideshows, and surveys, thereby preparing them for high school and college. Meanwhile, Macs provide access to more sophisticated programs, including Photoshop, Garage Band, and iMovie, so that students can create multimedia on the caliber of those found in the real world.
These two tools are tied together in three ways. First, they will allow our school to foster greater collaboration among students, teachers, and families. Second, they will allow teachers to teach digital citizenship -- ways to use technology and the Internet that are safe, smart, and ethical. Third, they will allow students to produce creative, engaging, high quality work in multiple content areas.
On behalf of our entire faculty, please support this year's Fund-A-Need!
