At Easterns Automotive Group, we believe every student deserves the tools they need to succeed. That’s why we partnered with 7News for another edition of our Helping Hands initiative — this time surprising a group of hard-working students in Prince George’s County with brand-new laptops to start the school year.

7News meteorologist Jordan Evans joined us at Andrew Jackson Academy in District Heights, Maryland, where students from kindergarten through eighth grade gathered for the big reveal. Before the surprise, Principal Warren Tweety shared his excitement for what lies ahead:

“We’re looking forward to the greatness that’s going to happen this year, and with these babies here, it is going to happen with our big surprise,” said Principal Tweety.

The recipients were chosen because they earned a spot on the Principal’s Honor Roll, each maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA. Their dedication to learning made them the perfect candidates for this special moment.

When the laptops were unveiled live on 7News, the students’ faces lit up with excitement. Both the children and the school community expressed their gratitude, knowing these devices will open new doors for learning, creativity, and achievement throughout the year.

At Easterns, supporting education is at the heart of our mission. We’re proud to help invest in the next generation of leaders right here in our community.
