My Students
My amazing school is a Title I school located in Brooklyn, NY. My school is an outlier in our district. Unlike the other schools in the neighborhood our school budget is always tight. I frequently run out of supplies like copy paper, printer ink and pencils. Some of these items, such as printer ink are expenses that are paid for by classroom teachers. Our parents aren't able to provide donations to the school PTA like many of the other schools in our district.
The majority of my students are first generation immigrants hailing from such locations as Bangladesh, Mexico, Ukraine, Yemen and China.
Our school is a cultural melting pot where over 15 different languages are spoken! Since we are a Title I school, most students receive free breakfast and lunch. Although we don't get many donations from our parents, our PTA has managed to offer fantastic after school clubs and art opportunities to our students, and they have figured out ways to extend our budget so that many students can participate in these programs free of charge.
My Project
We use our Color LaserJet printer daily. We print colored photos, charts, and visuals to help improve our learning (and teaching!)
This printer ink has helped to bring ancient civilizations to life through close examination of colorful artifacts.
Additionally, we have used color as a tool to help create visual organizers, charts, and images to help all students in reading, writing, and math. Lastly, we have gained freedom by having the ability to spontaneously provide copies for our students in an instance without having to "put in for copies" and wait for days. Our printer allows us to brighten our surrounds and "color" our learning. Let's face it, everything is better in color!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
