My Project

Try remembering what you saw when you walked into your elementary school classroom. Did it look inviting, clean, fun, and organized? Or did your classroom look cluttered, dirty, and chaotic? Our school was built over 100 years ago, and not much has been updated since. We do not have enough cleaning supplies available to keep up with an old building and lots of youngsters still learning about the importance of hygiene. We are in desperate need of tools to help keep our school clean.

A clean classroom tells our students that we care about them.

A dirty classroom leads to a lack of concern for the classroom environment and tools. I want my students to be proud of the place they come every day and care for it. A clean classroom simply makes everyone feel better. An organized, clean environment creates greater opportunities for student learning. Healthy students can focus on success!
