Nothing to Sneeze About!

Help me give my students the supplies to keep our classroom safe and clean.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O'Brien's classroom raised $400

My Project

My 8th grade students are boundless in energy and momentum while they explore Physics and Chemistry. Whether they are testing the change in velocity of balloon rockets or completing a physical separation of mixtures, Kinetic Energy is their mantra.

Unfortunately, all that moving around exploring the physical sciences often leads to the spreading of germs on surfaces during cold and flu season.

An unattended study in virology!

We need cleaning supplies to stop the spread! Please help me give my students the supplies to keep our classroom safe and clean.
