My Project

Sadly, the school year will be ending mid June. We have completed exhausted all of our previously donated cleaning supplies. We clean do a classroom cleanup twice a week and are in need of paper towel, disinfecting wipes, new brooms, and an extra swiffer.

My students are very proud of their classroom environment.

They thrive when the room is clean and free of dirt. We are often short custodial staff making it imperative that we do our best to keep our classroom clean. Without these supplies, we will end up with dust on our tables, turf fom the field on our carpet, eraser shavings everywhere , and very sticky floors.

Yikes!

Thank you for considering our project! With a clean space, my scholars can contiune to maximize their learning with one less distraction.
