Help me give my students a printer and paper choice so they can print out and display the projects they create in the technology lab in a variety of ways.

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 Students
My students are urban scholars that have so much potential without the resources to match. While the neighborhood they live in has been developing, many of the resources have not reached the sections where their families reside. They are inquisitive students that range in age and ability. My students enjoy learning and have different learning styles. They love science and are excited about using technology for scientific research. Some of my students can tell you about the latest video games or what Apps they use on their parent's smartphones, while others have a television set as their most advanced technology.
When there is a challenge, that is when my students really come to life.
It is a joy to see them deep in thought or trying to discover something new. Many of my students have special needs and require accommodations for learning. Although my students can get easily distracted, they do not let that keep them from trying out new technology in the classroom. They rely upon one another to learn how to use and solve problems with technology in class. My students learn that if they work hard, greatness will be the outcome.
My Project
Every day in our class students learn the skills they need for the future. We often work on projects that scientific research, problem solving, and critical thinking. We learn about animal life cycles, pollution, and global warming. My students often create slideshows and brochures on the topics they learn. Aside from the hands-on experiments, much of the scientific research we do is on the computer. Our students need to be able to print out their scientific research notes, photographs of research subjects and lab reports.
By donating to this project you will not only be providing a tangible piece of my students' scientific knowledge, you will be giving them a sense of pride.
With the resources we are requesting, students will be able to print their diagrams of living things, charts detailing data learned through their research, and memories of their hands-on experiments. Their peers and other members of the school community will know what they are learning about and be able to ask them questions about it. This project will help us to grow our STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Maker Space.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
