Mouser Electronics Donates Texas Instruments Calculators to Mansfield ISD for STEM Education

Mouser Electronics has supplied new Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus CE calculators with Python coding capabilities to schools in the Mansfield (Texas) Independent School District (MISD) for the 2024-25 school year. The donation aims to support the district's science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educational programs, particularly for math and science classes.

In addition to the calculators, the district received Texas Instruments TI-Innovator Hubs, TI-Innovator Rovers, and other data collection tools such as the TI Calculator Based Ranger 2 and Vernier EasyTemp temperature probes.
