I am a Middle School Science teacher in a high needs NYC area. I service English Language Learners within the seventh grade. We are in need of toner for our science classroom printer.
My students have to overcome many language barriers, learn the English language and required school concepts with little or no help from their parents.
Their parents are unable to help them in the educational area due to lack of knowledge and understanding of the English language, as well as knowledge of these concepts. My students work hard and often support their mothers and fathers by running household errands and watching younger siblings. Unfortunately, another aspect my students share is that the majority (+65%) of the families in my school are struggling financially.
My Project
Unfortunately due to the budget cuts schools are facing teachers in my school are no longer being supplied with toner. Under the new Common Core standards rolling out nationwide students are required to make use of technology. However few schools are being supplied with the necessities to do so. I try my best to make lessons interactive and engaging with the use of technology but some items still need to be printed out such as final reports, essays, letters home to parents, progress reports etc. I am requesting replacement toner cartridges (color and black ink) to accomplish these tasks.
Printer toner is a vital necessities in any classroom.
Parents, students, and myself all depend on toner for our class to run well. This can only happen with your aid. Please support my proposal and thank you in advance for seeking out www.donorschoose.org to support education.
