Creating in Color

My students' need a color printer and ink. My gifted class is very creative but lacks the technology in the classroom to truly represent their academics and talent. It will allow them to create projects and publish them with how they envision it.

My Students

I wouldn't want to limit such amazing writers and creative minds with just the basic. These students need something more to broaden their limitations and create work that represents them as young scholars.

My students are highly gifted but come from a low socio-economic area.

They are bright, intelligent, funny, and appreciate everything we do for them. They try their best and are creating building blocks for their future. Everything possible should be done to show and motivate students to keep aiming higher and higher.

My Project

With your donation, my students will be motivated to create and display work enthusiasm using a color printer. It will allow them to create projects and publish them with how they envision it, and not just in black and white. Why not give these kids this opportunity? They definitely work hard and deserve it.

My students will be forever thankful and this will inspire them to become more creative.

Our classroom will be full of color and will represent my students' true potential. We should never limit a child in education, especially if there is something that can be done.
