Monday night at Roseville High School, Parents Club, in a presentation called “Tiger Tank,” gave campus organizations a chance to compete for $1000 in prize money for their respective programs. Program representatives pitched to a table of judges what they would do with the money to better their program, and in the end, AVID walked out with the donation.

The money will go toward purchasing graphing calculators for students who do not own them, according to junior Chandler Higgs, who spoke on behalf of the AVID program.

“Graphing calculators are very expensive, they run about $120,” junior Chandler Higgs said. “So, I just talked about the impact that it has on students, how a lot of people can’t afford graphing calculators.”
