Help me give my students a pencil sharpener to keep pencils sharp for writing activities.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Phelps's classroom raised $298

Celebrating 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
My students come from low income homes and don't always have access to the best materials. I find that my students somehow eat pencils for breakfast, lunch and dinner, because pencils constantly disappear. I would like to try something new in my classroom. I'd like to have sharpened pencils available to my students at all times so students don't have to worry about finding a sharpened pencil. This would help make sure that all students are prepared and ready for learning. Having a super fast pencil sharpener would be a super big help. I'd be eternally grateful for your help, because fast pencil sharpeners are not cheap!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
