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 Students
I teach in a Title I school in Staten Island, NY. This year I have an ICT class. Which means half of my class has IEPs. In addition many of my students are also English Language Learners. My students are hard workers who truly push themselves to do their very best. However, often they don't have all the supplies and materials they need to succeed in school. Due to budget cuts, my school is not always able to provide classrooms with extras, but I want my students to have it all.
My Project
My students are always eager to bring their projects to life by printing pictures and information. Most of them do not have access to a color printer at home, and unfortunately we are not always able to provide this resource for them at school due to a lack of funds. Colored in is very expensive and it is usually up to us to replenish the supply.
This Ecotank printer offers a great solution to our problem as it has an inkwell that can last up to two years!
Even the replacement ink is not a fortune. The Ecotank printer also allows for wireless printing so my students can use their tablets to create their projects as well!
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
