How did you hear about the Living History Summer Camp? _________________________________
We are so grateful for the generosity of
our supporters, which last year allowed
us to raise $19,000 to replace outdated
computers in the student computer lab
and some classrooms. While we have
made excellent progress in upgrading
technology, our need still remains. It is
so important to our school that
students have access to educational
tools, that our teachers can utilize the
best teaching methods, and that our
school can stay competitive with the
public schools in this area. Part two of
our technology plan will address these
needs. We hope to upgrade the rest of
the staff computers, increase the
internet capability in the building, and
provide Chromebooks for the middle
school.
Replace Computers in Student Lab
Replace Computers for Some Teachers
Cost: $19,000
Replace Rest of Staff Computers
YEAR 2:
PROGRAM PLANS
This year’s Crusader Celebration
will once again include a Fund-ANeed appeal to support the second
year of our Technology Initiative.
YEAR 1:
Technology Initiative
Upgrade Bandwidth for Internet Service
Purchase Chromebooks for Middle School
Cost: $24,000
The cost for the second phase of
this Technology Initiative is
$24,000. This is a large goal, but
PROGRAM COST
one we are confident we can
achieve by working together.
Please prayerfully consider how
you can share your blessings to
help Holy Cross reach this goal. If
you are not able to attend the
event, or wish to give
anonymously, please contact Anne
Fredrickson at 952-652-6100.
