Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Fighting germs and dirt is a struggle every day in a classroom. We have carpet installed in our classroom and we want to keep it clean and nice. Our school vacuum is overworked now cleaning the carpet all over the building. We need a reliable vacuum that can keep the dirt away. We try our best to clean up after ourselves during the day, but that takes time away from learning! With new vacuums, our cleaning time will decrease. Having Clorox wipes will help keep the germs away throughout the day! Having Kleenex will help make sure germs are in the tissue and not on surfaces in the classroom.

Having a clean room will make more time for learning!

I have several students with allergies, so vacuuming regularly can help keep their allergies from bothering them. No germs means students won't be sick! Attendance and learning will improve.
