Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

Providing students with quality resources is something that I thrive to do. The internet provides a plethora of resources that are engaging and rigorous to enhance student learning. However, these resources are not always readily available to us because of our printing needs.

Our classroom printer provides us with these resources, but we are running very low on printer ink.

I need the ink requested to be able to print off these resources for my students and give them access to these materials.

I requested the white cardstock paper for some special projects we have at the end of the year that require thicker printing paper.

Thank you for making all our printing dreams come true!
