Cramped Old Carpet Needs Updating!!!

My students need 1 A Place for Everyone Classroom Carpet for 30.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Franklin's classroom raised $649

This project is fully funded

Help us with our rug! I teach all subjects to a 1st grade class in a high-need school in Maryland.

Our classroom rug (where we do a lot of learning and discussion from) is very old and the rubber backing has fallen off it. The rug is very thin and cramped when fitting about 30 students on it.

A nice, new, comfortable classroom rug would benefit the learning of my class. Children need to be comfortable when learning and are not comfortable on a rug where they are crammed together and basically sitting on nothing but the hard ground.

You will make it possible for my students to be comfortable in their learning environment by providing a bright, new classroom carpet! We will be able to achieve with your help!
