Jackson Elementary has been
working hard to raise money for the Tech Pal program, designed to incorporate
technology into the classroom. The goal is to raise enough money to purchase
Kindle Fires for the 4th and 5th grades.
Recently, a very generous
anonymous donor donated 40 Kindle Fires to the program. With the proceeds from
the Jackson Heritage 5k donated by the Jackson Township Supervisors, a spirit
sale, student donations, donations from Gilkey Pools, Dr. Joseph Cavalier, Dr.
Donald Leckey and other business donations, Jackson Elementary was also able to
purchase a charging cart. The Jackson Elementary PTO also donated Amazon gift
cards to help with the cost of apps.
From the students, faculty and staff, we would like to thank all of those who support our students at Jackson Elementary.
Jackson Elementary is still accepting donations to continue
purchasing Kindle Fires so that each student in 4th and 5th
grade has their own to save their work and progress on. If you are
interested in becoming a Tech Pal, please contact Jackson Elementary at
