Cleaning Up!

Help me give my students a clean, safe environment in which to learn and explore.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Tetlak's classroom raised $730

This project is fully funded

My Project

This school year started with a building wide move to a swing site for the next two years so that our old building can be renovated. In the meantime, several of our basic needs and tools did not make the move with us, somehow.

We would like to make sure that our children have a clean space to come to learn each day.

Preschoolers are messy. We are learing to cut, eat, glue and paint. By having access to cleaning materials in our classroom, we can clean up simple messes, teach the children responsible cleaning skills and keep us all healthy.

We will be teaching the students how to use the cleaning tools to help keep our classroom neat and tidy!
