Help me give my students a clean classroom environment to enhance their learning experience and well being!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Varela's classroom raised $304

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Students spend a large portion of their day in classrooms. A clean space supports a clear mindset for learning. It is imperative that students' classroom space is clean and sanitary. With over 100 students transitioning in and out of our classroom daily, maintaining a clean classroom space can be challenging.

These supplies will help students take ownership of maintaining a clean and healthy space.

The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us that a clean classroom is important for the health and well-being of students. As we enter the second semester of school, these cleaning supplies and the oil diffuser will help our classroom stay as clean and smell as fresh as it was on the first day of school.
