The
Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) Myles Scully Division #1 of Yonkers Archbishop Stepinac High School White Plains
Division
#1 member John Walsh presented a $1,000 donation to Fr. Tom Collins, who is the
President of Stepinac High School. John
is a graduating senior from Stepinac this year and is the son of Division #1
Vice President Jim Walsh.
The funds will be used to purchase
new Samsung Chromebooks for student use. School officials explained that new
technology is becoming a necessity in today’s learning
environment.
“ Since our school uses a blended learning
environment where the teacher uses online resources that include Massive Open
Online Courses (MOOC), digital textbooks, and my Pearson Online Labs, the use
of mobile devices is becoming more and more important every year.” said Stepinac Advancement Officer
Patrick Massaroni, “The ability to
acquire additional Chromebooks will only add to our ability to ensure that
every student has the resources to use our digital platforms regardless of the
circumstances.”
