My Project
My wonderful 5th graders are constantly needing their pencils sharpened. We've gone through three standard sharpeners this year, and four last year. Please help us get this heavy duty super sharpener. I know my kiddos will be so grateful! Their handwriting is neater with sharp pencils, and you'll help this teacher save so much time. While this seems expensive for a sharpener, I've spent at least this much on a half dozen cheaper ones that didn't stand the test of time.
Our schools is a Title I elementary school, with about 700+ students, most of whom are from low income families.
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
