My Students

In this age of technology, we use the computer more and more. Supplies are so limited, as well as ink to make copies for our students. We need to be able to put our students work in portfolios, to be reviewed at the end of the year, and to see how well the students have progressed.

I am a special education teacher with second and third graders.

They need a lot of hands on activities for them to master all the skills required in every core subject. There is no "Teachers Choice" this year, and most supplies need to come out of the teachers pockets. It would be so helpful if we could receive ink.

My Project

Thanks to many corporations that try to help us, Quill is offering to help halfway, if someone else covers the rest. If we had ink for the upcoming year, then my students would have so many more activities they could do and master. They need to pass the state test and practice for it daily.

I'm hoping Quill will fund this project halfway and someone out there will help finish it off so that my students can have the best opportunities to learn.

We are a Title One school with such limited funds for materials, that this would truly help us. We thank you so much for caring!
