Help me give my students a pencil sharpener so that they can stay sharp!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Torres's classroom raised $175
This project is fully funded
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 Project
Please help me give my students pencil sharpeners. I remember the excitement of a fresh sharpened pencil. That always motivated me to write neater and therefore take more pride in my work. I see the same excitement in my kids faces when they sharpen their pencil.
Unfortunately, our sharpener broke.
Now my students are constantly asking to borrow small sharpeners, which ends up leaving our classroom a big mess at the end of the day. We thank you for reading our proposal and hope you have a great day!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
