My students need a printer so they can print their classroom projects just in case they don't have a printer at home.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Aguilar's classroom raised $295

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 come from a high poverty neighborhood with a very diverse range of home structures: nuclear, single parent, foster, and migrant, to name a few.
My students love to be at school and enjoy learning, especially when the activities are hands-on.
Many of my students are English Language Learners that attend a public school in the South Central Los Angeles area. They are always excited to experience any kind of technology that I'm able to bring to my class.
My Project
I teach 27 5th grade students in South Central, Los Angeles. We have 99% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunches at our school.
My classroom is in great need of a new printer.
This new printer will benefit all students in my classroom. They will all get to print from it. I have two computers in my classroom but only 1 very very old printer. A new printer would live in my classroom and support my students' learning. Kids love to print their work out on the computer because it makes them take pride in their work. Having a new printer would give the children in my class the opportunity to add pictures to stories they type. This would then make the students work harder on their work.
This new printer would give the children an opportunity to type their stories and pictures. The students would also be able to make a memory book at the end of the year that will have different memories from them being in fifth grade. I also do a lot of computer programs with my students. The students get to make booklets and get to illustrate their pictures. But without having another printer in my room it is impossible to have all of my students to participate. My students and I will be very appreciative.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
