Clippix - ClipPix ETC is your source for photos and pictures for classroom use. A friendly license allows teachers and students to use up to 25 free photos in a single, non-commercial school project without further permission. Each photo is available in multiple sizes as well as a high-resolution TIFF image for quality printing. The classroom-appropriate pictures on ClipPix ETC are great images for school websites, class projects, student reports, homework assignments, presentations, posters, art projects, picture books, bulletin boards, and creating teaching aids.
