Help me give my students a clean environment to grow and learn in.

My Project

My students are hardworking, kind, and eager to learn. Every day, three different classes of approximately 30 students each learn in our classroom, meaning nearly 90 students benefit from a clean, organized, and welcoming learning environment. Creating a positive space helps students feel safe, comfortable, and ready to focus on learning.

A clean, organized classroom helps nearly 90 students stay healthy, focused, and ready to learn each day.

Clorox wipes, whiteboard cleaner, and microfiber cloths will help us maintain clean, sanitized desks, tables, and instructional spaces used by multiple classes throughout the day. The air fresheners will help keep our classroom fresh and inviting, while the 4-gallon trash bags will help us quickly manage daily waste and keep our room organized.

These everyday supplies may seem small, but they have a big impact on student learning. By helping us maintain a clean and organized classroom for nearly 90 students each day, you are creating an environment where students can focus on reading, writing, collaborating, and growing as learners. Thank you for supporting my students and helping provide a classroom where they can thrive.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
