My Project

I love my students for their curiosity, their resilience, and the joy they bring into the classroom every day. They deserve a learning environment where they feel safe, supported, and ready to explore without hesitation. Providing essential resources like hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, disinfecting spray, and paper towels helps us maintain a clean, healthy space where students can focus on learning instead of worrying about germs or messes. When the classroom feels cared for, students feel cared for too, and that sense of security allows them to thrive academically and socially.

Equally important are first aid kits for all teachers and staff.

Kids are active, energetic, and sometimes accidents happen—having immediate access to basic medical supplies ensures that small injuries are handled quickly and calmly, minimizing disruptions and keeping students comfortable. These resources empower us to respond to their needs with confidence, reinforcing that school is a place where their well‑being comes first. When students know they are protected and supported, they are more willing to take risks, participate fully, and grow into the learners we know they can be.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
