Being able to have a clean environment has helped them to stay organized and focused! It also allows us to create more art because we can easily clean up afterwards.\r\n It has also taught them responsibility, especially in regards to cleaning up after themselves, which is a vital life lesson that they will be able to use. For example, I had a student who was working on an art project and ended up with a lot of paper on the floor. They were able to independently clean up what they could, then asked for the vacuum to clean up the small pieces. The student felt free to be creative and make a mess, but also knew the importance and cleaning up afterwards.","fullyFundedDate":1746786012830,"projectUrl":"project/so-fresh-and-so-clean-classroom-vacuum/9135820/","projectTitle":"So Fresh and So Clean: Classroom Vacuum","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lao","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8778964_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725256344483","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8778964"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_37370","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":472,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":79,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"19.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.0,"schoolId":37370,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Audubon K-8 School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Audubon K-8 School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/san-diego-unified-school-district/audubon-academy/37370"}
