So Fresh and So Clean

Help me give my students paper towels, disinfectant spray, fabuloso and more to keep our classroom clean and fresh!

My Project

Preschoolers are some germy little people! This is their first school experience; they haven't been around so many other children before and there are a lot of days missed from school due to illness. We are in need of paper towels, Fabuloso all-purpose cleaner, disinfectant sanitizing spray, and more. These cleaning items will help to keep our classroom clean and our students healthy.

Keeping early childhood education settings clean helps prevent harmful germs from spreading among children and staff.

Responsible hygiene also teaches kids good habits that they will benefit from for life. We often talk about proper hand-washing techniques, covering our mouths when we sneeze and cough, and dirties and nasties. We have had the Virginia Department of Health come to give a lesson on germs and the kids found that very exciting! Please help us stay fresh and clean, so we can stay in school and stay focused on our learning goals!
