Hey I know you guys hate school but I just started liking it last year.   I like the projects that we get to do.  I get to use the computer at home.  While doing my Internet search for home work I took a break and learned to do the moon walk watching a You Tube video. 

If I could use the computer more often I would have more fun.  I asked my papa that after I am in 8th grade if I would go to another school.   I want the school to have lots of computers so I can use one for myself.  While I do not mind sharing no one can agree what to look for and when I find what I want my time is up.  It is not fair to say i can use it but then my time is up once I find what I like.

From Papa:

Nonprofits can provide a lot more support to those it serves by utilizing computers more.  While I am not advocating that nonprofits lay off staff, it is important to automate those services that can reach the maximum amount of people.  The cost savings in staffing by using computers just might surprise you.  I liked what Chris had to say with the pic of plugging in and getting turned on.  I guess he is trying to advocate for his own home computer. 

Many students do not have access to the Internet or a computer to expand their opportunities for learning.  There area number of states including Maine who have been making a major effort to get a computer into the hands of a majority of their students.
