My students love our color printer. They use it to print out pictures for buttons, posters for school events, and materials for projects. So when it died a couple of weeks ago, its death caused a great degree of chaos.
We need a new printer for students to create, learn, and connect.
The library is the only access many of our students have to a color printer. Without the color printer, I'm asked on a daily basis if I've somehow managed to fix it- a lot of what students do on a daily basis has come to a standstill. I also haven't been able to promote initiatives for the library, such as our reading competition. Having a color printer would be a life saver!
