A brief description of the time period from which the figures reported above are drawn:
This is for calendar year January 1, 2022- Dec. 31, 2022. Since the pandemic, we have reduced our paper purchasing significantly. This data comes from Staples, our paper supplier for the campus and is from their data directly. The last time we completed STARS in 2020, we had spent over $40,000 on paper for one year. Now it has reduced to under $12,000.00. This is a huge win for us.
