Lighting the Way to Success

Help me give my students fluorescent light covers for an optimal learning environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. B.'s classroom raised $765

My Project

Since the pandemic, my students have been faced with new challenges. Anxiety, attention issues, and lack of motivation in the classroom have increased. Lighting in the classroom can make a difference in the learning environment and lead to student success and a sense of well-being.

Fluorescent light covers have been known to reduce harmful blue light, thus increasing performance, improvements in those with autism/ADHD, and improving focus.

It is my goal to obtain "cloud" covers for the fluorescent lighting in my classroom and give students the opportunity for a calmer, more productive, learning environment.
