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
I am a Community School Director at an elementary school. The goal of a Community School is to create an environment where students, families, and staff alike feel supported and are active players in both the educational experience and the community where they attend school and work.
I am seeking a color printer for communications and for projects that involve student and family engagement.
Currently, our school of 450 students only has one color printer. Your contribution towards this purchase would make a meaningful difference in the educational journey of our students and the overall efficacy of our school.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
