My Project

Our school is in a wonderful rural town where families work and love hard. Parents and grandparents strive to raise healthy, kind, and intelligent children. They provide the necessary school supplies but sometimes it is a lot to ask. Pencils are a necessity for all grades in out elementary. To keep pencils available and working we need good pencil sharpeners which we do not have.

A good pencil sharpener is crucial for teachers because it allows for efficient and smooth sharpening of student pencils, minimizing disruptions in class time, preventing frequent pencil breakage, and ensuring students can produce neat, legible writing with sharp points, ultimately contributing to better classroom management and student engagement.

Pencil sharpeners may seems like a small thing but you can ask any teacher and they would say different. Please consider donating to provide every classroom an electric pencil sharpener. This would be a huge asset to the entire elementary.
