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

In our busy classroom, cleanliness plays a huge role in ensuring all students can focus and learn without distractions. We have a very mobile classroom where students move around to work at desks, on the floor, or even leaning against the walls. But no matter how much I sweep and clean, dust and dirt always seem to reappear—especially in the hard-to-reach corners and under desks and bookshelves.

That's why I'm asking for a 2-in-1 Robot automatic floor cleaner.

This robot will help keep our classroom floors clean and free of dust, dirt, and allergens—allowing students to comfortably learn in the spaces they prefer. Many of my students enjoy working on the carpet, but dust bunnies often make it uncomfortable. Having a cleaner environment will not only help with their comfort but also make it easier for them to stay focused throughout the day.

The robot will be able to clean both our hardwood floors and carpet, and it will remove dust and debris that can trigger asthma for several of my students. While we do clean every day, the robot will ensure that even the toughest spots—under desks, around bookshelves, and in corners—get cleaned without interrupting instructional time.

With your support, we can create a healthier, more comfortable learning environment where students can thrive without the distractions of dirt and allergens. Thank you for helping us keep our classroom clean, safe, and ready for learning!
