My Project

Our third grade is in need of a vacuum cleaner. Please help us supply this much needed essential. We strive to provide a clean and welcoming classroom environment each and every day. Our students each have classroom jobs, and this also helps teach them responsibility. Every third grade classroom has reading rugs that are student learning spaces, and we do need a vacuum to clean them daily.

Thank you for considering to donate and support our entire grade level!

We are appreciative of any support of this project!
