My Project

Hi, I am asking for a brand new rug for our classroom. We did get one BUT it has become ruined, and stained due to its light color and it being hard to up keep. The students need a cool, clean area rug to do morning meetings, work and collaborate in an area where it is comfortable for them to express ideas.

A classroom rug that is clean and and radiant provides kids with joy when it comes to learning and wanting to be on that space.

This classroom rug will provide a spacious homey feeling for all students, It will be darker and be less work to maintain to stay that way due to its dark color scheme it has.
