My Project

Please help me give my students electric pencil sharpeners and pencils. Every year they are broken, overheated or stopped working. Pencil sharpeners are expensive to replace when they do break. These new sharpeners make it possible for student to sharpen their pencils with low waste.

Our students are SO SHARP!

Pun intended! They are incredibly amazing.

Having these tools will help them not only to have the tools they need, but it will help students to be prepared for class and productive. They are such wonderful students and they will be even more excited to learn.
