My Project
Students in 6th grade love to use colorful mechanical pencils instead of traditional wooden #2 pencils. We do a lot of daily note-taking, essay-writing, and art projects - so they go through A LOT of lead refills, too!
Please help me restock my supplies so that every student will always have a pencil they love to use and enough lead refills to last all year.
Lead refills are quite expensive and I cannot afford to purchase them all the time. Moreover, the pencils themselves often need replacing every couple of months. Students all have their preferred "size" - 0.5mm, 0.7mm, or 0.9mm. I try very hard to keep all the pencil sizes and lead refills in-stock, but it's not easy!
In my classes, my students know that they just need to ask me for whatever items they need to do their work, and I will help them. What the students don't know is that the expenses get pretty big for me. I would really appreciate your help so that I can continue supporting my students with basic school supplies. Thank You!
More than half of students from low‑income households
