My Project

My students are active learners and eager to be in school and to excel. They are usually focused on their work, but often they have to leave our classroom to get a drink of water. I know that my students will drink more water if they have access to water inside our classroom. Many of my students' families cannot afford to purchase water bottles--I would like to take care of this student need, with your help. We'll need some cleaning wipes to clean up our messes and keep us healthy too.

Water is one of the essentials of life, please help me give my students easier access to water and more focus on their classroom activities.

I've also requested compostable cleaning wipes, brooms and Dia de los Metros inspired flower decor. All of this will have a great impact on our classroom--keeping us cleaner and more beautiful.

Thank you for considering our project!
