My Project
Handheld pencil sharpeners are an essential tool in the art room, especially for students in grades 5–8. They are ideal for sharpening colored pencils, which can break easily in electric sharpeners. I use them most often during drawing projects such as portraits, landscapes, and a variety of other creative assignments.
These sharpeners allow students to stay focused at their tables without interrupting their work to move across the room.
Having enough quality handheld sharpeners supports smooth workflow, precision, and independence, helping young artists stay engaged and creative throughout their projects.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
