My Project

These locking storage cabinets will provide my classroom with the most needed storage. The classroom is a small lab with minimal built in storage. I have been working to provide my students with all the equipment necessary for their success in Biology and Chemisty. Over the years I have acquired essential equipment that needs to be stored safely. This includes dissection sets for Biology, chemicals for chemistry labs and other items that need proper and safe storage.

My classroom is a haven for my students.

My students needs many unconventional manipulative to learn the complex Science concepts. Almost all my students are also food deprived. Due to this reason, I ensure that they have healthy snacks available at all times. However, we have a serious rodent problem and keeping all these items safe has been a major issue.

I am asking your help in keeping all our equipment and snacks safe.
