[aisle] Using Cricut in a School

[Lura O'Phelan]

Hello Everyone!

We are considering purchasing several Cricut Maker machines for the staff
at our primary elementary school to use for student projects and for
classrooms (bulletin boards, wall decorations, etc). I have a few
logistical questions that I'm hoping one or more of you can answer, if you
have done the same at your school:

1. Will these machines hold up with heavy use?
2. How does your district deal with the pricey subscription and multiple
users? It seems like there are limited resources in the free version.
3. How do you handle materials? Do you have certain materials available at
no cost to the users? Do users "contribute"?

I've been borrowing a Maker and trying it out in my library, and I love it!
I just need to see if there's a way to make this work with multiple users.
I'd love to get rid of our old die cuts!!

Any suggestions or info is appreciated!

Thank you!
