Print! Print! All About It!

Help me give my students ink for our classroom printer. Being able to print in the classroom is a luxury that is needed!

My Students

As a teacher, I am fortunate to have a classroom full of superstars. For the majority of my students, their personal situations are not always as bright as their smiles. Many of the students come from low-income households. This demographic of students lacks experiences such as going out of the country or even riding a train. With that being said, the situations these students face do not define who they are or where they are going.

With the right tools and support, the sky is the limit for these superstars.

These students have such a genuine love for learning it roars through their voices as they chant different phonics songs in the morning. Having a classroom environment that is welcoming and refreshing gives these students hope!

“Desire is the key to motivation, but it is determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal, a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek.” With the help of DonorsChoose.org reaching students and their needs is just that much easier. Thank you.

My Project

I have been lucky enough to still have a classroom printer. Once the ink is gone in the classroom printer the district removes the printer. Teachers do have access to work room copiers but nothing beats having your own in your OWN space.

Having ink in the printer in my classroom allows me to scaffold my teaching to meet each scholars needs.

I am able to quickly print notes home, needed supports online, and anything in between. Once this grant is funded that is one less thing I have to stress about in my classroom. Thank you in advance donors!
