My Students

My students have a passion to learn and deserve the best. My students want to share their learning with their families. They are excited when new stories or books are brought into the classroom.

I work in a Title I school where 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.

They come from a wide range of backgrounds and ability levels. I want my students to have a positive learning experience and environment that they can also take home and continue their learning.

My Project

My students love to make books and publish them. If we had a laminator and laminating sheets it would help to protect their work. The students would be able to take their work home and share their learning with their families more easily. The laminating would also allow the students to save their work to look at in the future.

Having a laminator and many laminating sheets will give my students the opportunity they need to becoming even greater writers and save their work!

With your help, my students could also laminate projects that they want to save and share with other. Thank you!
