My Project

We are a newer school and it would be great to have a die cut machine. The shapes from the die cut can be used for bulletin boards, to make crafts in class, and even for educational purposes when identifying shapes.

A cheerful environment creates cheerful students.

When students see that teachers take pride in their classrooms and in the hallways with bulletin boards it shows students that they can also take pride in their school. With the holidays coming up these die cuts and the machine will allow students to be able to take the cuts and help create a colorful environment.
