My Project

Our classroom is in DESPERATE need of a color printer! This will not only allow us to have access to any documents we may need in class, but it will make differentiation much easier as well as give me the ability to quickly create fun notes to send home to parents about exciting things happening in our room!

Help us bring a little COLOR to our learning!

Our kiddos are so thankful for any donations given to our project! I know they are excited to see what fun things will come from our new classroom addition!
