My students have been amazing to get to know! This year we have focused our classroom as we are a family. We have talked about how we treat our classroom like a home and how our classmates are family. I am always working on teaching my kids to be the best humans. That also includes teaching them life skills. In the world these days it is hard to make it, and their are so many jobs available with no one claiming them. in my school we have had the hardest time the past 2-3 years in keeping custodians. When we do have them most the time their work ethic is not great and they don't last long. With this happening my classroom is not getting cleaned like it should. I want my students to have a classroom that is a home to them. Please help us get our vacuum so we have have a clean and comfortable room!
