My Project

I am the school librarian of 260 students in a small suburban/rural high school. My school is part of the Connecticut Alliance District program which supports the 33 lowest-performing districts in the state as they establish reforms to increase student performance and close achievement gaps. My students are passionate, resilient, kind, and thoughtful young people. Our incredibly caring staff works endlessly to challenge our students academically, support them emotionally, and celebrate their successes inside and outside the classroom. It is a great privilege to be their school librarian! My students continue to crave opportunities to be creative, inquisitive, and more engaged in their learning! They have been creating posters, infographics, and other digital images and printing them with the HP DesignJet large format printer. The library's poster printer has became so popular that we need to replenish our ink supplies!

HP DesignJet ink cartridges will help students become enthusiastic, skilled, and creative problem-solvers as they design and print posters for class projects, fundraisers, and school events.
