I am so happy that I don't have to stress asking parents to donate kleenex, sanitizer, and lysol wipes for the remainder of the school year. I also am able to make enough copies without begging for paper from parents. I am able to make copies of items that i want students to put in their interactive journals as well as any notes that they may have missed when they are absent from class. The crates are also great as I do not have a file cabinet big enough to hold my student files. \r\n\r\nThe toner is the biggest help as toner is very expensive. The school typically doesn't have the extra money to purchase toner, so we usually have to purchase these ourselves. I am super happy that I am able to work without stressing supplies needed.
