My students need a classroom printer to print their completed work and projects.

"Be silly, be honest, be kind." - Ralph Waldo Emerson. This quote is framed at the front of our room to remind us that we learn from each other as we work to become better readers, writers, mathematicians, and scientists.
We are a neighborhood public school in the heart of Baltimore.
Class sizes range from 20-28 and our students come from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. We are a Title I school serving the city of Baltimore and we offer after-school enrichment programs which are available to every student. Our students have weekly instruction in art, music, and gym. Every spring teachers work with students to stage a school musical for which students audition and create set pieces and props. We are vibrant, but we struggle with funding, to say the least.
Many of our students struggle with foundational skills in reading and math and work below grade-level. Small group instruction is an integral part of our classroom day. As a teacher, I supply my classroom with class library books, student book boxes, poetry journals, educational games, bookshelves and school supplies. These materials create a warm and inviting classroom in which my students work to become lifelong readers and learners.
We need a printer and ink in our classroom so that students can print out their work from our classroom laptops. This year, my students have increased their typing and computer skills thanks to our class laptops. However, we have no way to print their projects and reports to show off their hard work. Having a printer in the classroom will allow my students to see their hard work displayed in our classroom and school. They will also be able to share their work with parents and families during our Celebration of Learning each semester. We work hard and we want to share our learning!
