Goal:
The FGES PTA is looking to raise funds to help purchase a mobile computer lab, as currently, the entire setup of our computers is inadequate to support instruction or assessments for class sizes as high as 30. Our fixed computer lab housed in the library is meant to accommodate a maximum of 15 computers, but is crammed with 21. This doesn't fit any of our classes in grades 1-5. Therefore, those who don't fit have to sit separate from their class and their teacher, where they are unable to hear instructions or participate, but where another class is typically ongoing and likelihood for distraction is high.
