My Students
Writing doesn't burn us out, but it sure does burn out our pencil sharpeners!
I am a first grade teacher of some creative students who show off their creativity daily through their writing.
Our school is located in the "Heart of Cajun Country." We provide a quality education to a diverse population of students. We are also a host school for students who reside at local shelters.
My Project
A very durable, safe electric pencil sharpener is a necessity in our classroom. Unfortunately, electric pencil sharpeners don't last forever. Our current sharpeners need to be retired to that "electric sharpener graveyard." They no longer sharpen our pencils. We seem to waste precious instructional time sharpening pencils. Having a sharpener that will allow my students to sharpen their own pencils quickly and safely will be an added bonus to our routines.
With your generosity in funding this proposal, my first graders will be able to work efficiently throughout the day and not have to worry or struggle with a simple task as sharpening a pencil.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
