My students are some of the most intelligent and inquisitive young people I have ever met

Unfortunately, they attend a school that is underfunded and underperforming. Their desire to persevere through these challenges is inspiring, and I want to provide them with the material to help them do that! This year I will be teaching AP Biology to a talented group of 10th, 11th and 12th graders. More than 80% of my students qualify for free and reduced lunch, over 20% of them are english language learners and almost 20% of my receive special education services.

In order to increase the rigor, and deepen their understanding of complex scientific concepts, my students need to participate in inquiry based labs! These inquiry based labs require equipment, equipment that my building does not have. My students should not miss out on these labs simply because we can't afford to buy the equipment. With the equipment students will be able to explore osmosis and diffusion using advanced laboratory techniques, observe photosynthesis and cellular respiration by designing their own experiments, and analyze gel electrophoresis results to determine relationships between species. These skills will help prepare them for college, and ultimately careers. Your donation will allow my students to reach their full potential, thank you so much for your support!
