  • Ink Cartridge

    Funded Nov 7, 2023

    It is with great gratitude and appreciation that I submit this impact letter to you for your kindness and willingness to give, toward "Ink Cartridge!"?! With the color ink, I was able to implement more activities which engaged the students into learning.

    We have been able to keep utilizing our printer to finish projects, print papers, or obtain information pertinent to assignments thanks to your sponsorship. In our classroom, having convenient access to a printer makes all the difference.

    Once again, I appreciate your kindness. I am able to assist my students in becoming more successful academically because of you. It is greatly valued.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Barksdale

  • In Living Color!

    Funded Nov 14, 2021

    The color printer that I received for my classroom has really helped my students. When completing projects, students have used the printer to print out pictures, signs, different designs, etc. Students have stated to me that it makes their project come to life and makes it easier to present.

    The most exciting thing the students love about this printer is that it's color. They love the fact that when they come into my lab, everything is not always black and white...like they would normally see it. Color brings their work to life and that's why they love coming to the lab.

    There are really no particular students...all students enjoy it!

    Thank you again for bringing such wonderful smiles to my students faces. Every time they see the printer, it just brightens up there world. They have often asked "Mr. Barksdale, what's in living color today?"”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Barksdale

This color printer will help engage the students more into their work. I think it's a good idea to switch from black and white to something more exciting. I feel if they see something in color every once in a while, It will help them get their work done. Kids love colors! What better way to get them to learn...teach it in color. I want them to be excited about their work and by having this color printer, it will make them more excited. And for some, it may get them motivated.
