In order to prepare the youth of today for the 21st century, it is extremely important to stay current with technology. My computer lab contains 36 student computers.  21 of the computers are now 7 years old and the other 15 are 2 years old. My older computers will be obsolete by the end of this school year because I will no longer be able to run current software on them. I am unable to upgrade the operating system, therefore unable to teach new technologies and software. The other 15 computers are upgradeable, but I don't have enough funding to buy new software or 21 new computers. I receive no funding from the government, state, district or my school site. My students and I are putting all of our technology focus' into e-commerce this year to find ways to integrate learning technology with finding money and donations. I need $24,465.00 to order 21 new computers.
