My Project

The first week of school, everyone has a pencil is looking sharp, but beyond that, my students need a lot of help to stay on point. Without basic supplies, things start to get a bit sketchy, and I'd like to help, so I'm drawing a line. All these puns have lead me to this point:

I usually have 6-8 high school students every day who don't have a pencil when they get to my class.

That's over 1400 pencils for a school year. My students have much bigger problems than keeping up with a pencil, so if I can surmount this tiny obstacle for them, it can sometimes mean the difference between success or failure.

If #2 pencils are so popular, why aren't they #1? Seriously though, I'm drawing a blank. Face it, good pencil jokes are never dull.
