My Project

A clean classroom is a healthy classroom, and in our busy learning space, staying on top of cleanliness helps protect our students' health, focus, and sense of pride in their environment.

With this project, I’m requesting essential cleaning supplies to help maintain a fresh and organized space for my students.

Items like disinfectant wipes, paper towels, spray cleaners, hand soap, dish soap to help keep chairs clean, tissues, and trash bags, along with a trash can with a lid that will allow us to clean desks, supplies, and shared materials regularly. These small acts of care create big results: fewer absences, fewer distractions, and a learning environment that feels safe and welcoming.

We’re also requesting items like air freshener, magic erasers, gloves, a vacuum, and a small broom and dustpan to help us teach and model responsibility and independence, because students take pride in a space they help care for.

Your support will help us stay healthy, organized, and ready to focus on what matters most: learning, growing, and reaching our full potential together.
