My Project

The start of a new year means a fresh, new start. This has extra meaning this year as we moved into our new facility recently. Even though the building is brand new, there are certain supplies that were not included in the move. I want to ensure that myself and my students have a safe and clean learning environment that is equipped with all the necessary supplies.

A safe & clean learning environment should be a requirement at every school, every year!

I have requested items, such as tissue and garbage bags along with smell good stuff to make our learning environment a place where students want to be. I also requested laundry supplies to ensure my students have clean uniforms for their industry training. For many, my space is their home-away-from-home for 2.5 hours per day! My students deserve the best - and I want to make sure that students' learning space is conducive to learning and health!
