Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

A color printer would be an invaluable tool for a middle school counselor like myself. Each day, I rely heavily on printed materials for a variety of tasks including distributing student schedules, creating eye-catching flyers for events, preparing SEL activities, worksheets, and resources, printing student assignments, generating attendance reports, and compiling data. Unfortunately, the absence of a color printer complicates these essential tasks. I often find myself navigating to different stores and locations to fulfill the need for color printing, which can be time-consuming and inefficient.

The availability of a color printer would greatly enhance my ability to support students in their learning and promote their social-emotional well-being.

From creating visually engaging materials to facilitating interactive learning experiences, a color printer would serve as an indispensable resource for counselors in fostering a positive and enriching school environment. Your support in providing access to this resource would be immensely appreciated. Thank you in advance for your consideration and assistance!
