We Need a Clean and Sanitized Classroom

Help me give my students a clean and disinfected classroom to keep them safe from Covid, RSV, and other illnesses.

My Project

We need a clean and sanitized classroom! It has been very unfortunate, but with a lack of custodians in our school, classrooms are not getting cleaned properly. It's a problem we hoped would be remedied in the new year, but it will not.

Classrooms need to be properly clean with so many illnesses such as Covid, RSV, and basic flues spreading like wild fire.

In the three weeks leading up to our winter break, I had an average of 5-8 students out sick. This was just unacceptable.

I wish I had created this project so much earlier than now, but with the situation not changing, we need to take our cleaning into our own hands. We ask that you help us with the supplies to clean our room and shared POD learning space.
