Requesting Mac Computers

Coe Elementary is a school where student learning is supported (when possible and done appropriately) by Mac computers.

Good News: Each classroom has a single new iMac along with a projector and a document camera. In addition, the school has a cart and 15 Macbooks wonderfully donated by a secret patron. Both have been invaluable and used well.

Bad News: The vast number of student computers are G3 versions and are wearing out after 6 years of good service. Their replacement is estimated to be 3 years away.

Future? If anyone has any used G4 700 Mhz of better Mac computers, please contact Coe to donate a computer for student use. All donations are tax deductible.

Thanks! Coe Staff and Students
