Clean Classroom

Help me give my students a clean, sanitized, and safe place to learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Matherne's classroom raised $576

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are excited about learning math through the new curriculum we recently implemented and science through online simulations. I love watching them become engaged in the lessons, whole group learning, and small group discussions and meeting their individual learning goals. However, some of my resources were destroyed during Ida.

I know my students appreciate my teaching methods because I receive daily thank you notes for helping them understand skills in an upbeat, comfortable, and loving environment.

My students are special because they make teaching worth the effort and my desire to be a great educator. I want my students to continue their passion for math and science beyond my classroom and be more prepared for college and career. In order to do that, I need your help!

My Project

Students can confidently learn in a sanitized space. With the help of your donations, they will be able to come to school with an available mask, clean hands, and clean work space and have their temperatures checked. By giving to this project, you will help minimize the chances of my students becoming ill and having to stay at home.

This project is very important because my students' health and well-being are of high priority.

I want my students to be able to continue to learn within the classroom and not have to question if it is a health risk during the COVID pandemic.
