Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are incredibly motivated and persistent in their learning, especially in science. We are constantly performing investigations to explore the various science concepts.

The science classroom is often subject to spills, stains, and potential contamination from various chemicals, materials, and equipment used in experiments.

Proper sanitation of these materials is not only important for maintaining the integrity of our learning environment but also crucial for preventing the spread of germs and keeping our students and staff safe, especially in the wake of heightened concerns around hygiene.

I am requesting basic cleaning supplies (including washing solutions and dusters) so that we can maintain the cleanliness of our lab after performing our investigations. Batteries are also needed for the various science tools we use such as microscopes, pulse oximeters and timers.
