A Vacuum to Help Keep Our Classroom Clean!

Help me give my students clean carpets to learn on! After receiving two beautiful new classroom carpets, we realized a classroom vacuum will help us maintain them! The carpets are used daily for whole and small group learning!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We recently received two brand new carpets for our classroom, our own vacuum will help us keep our new carpets clean.

We have a very active classroom which at times can get messy!

Our own lightweight classroom vacuum will help us maintain the neatness of our classroom and help keep our carpets like new!

This vacuum can be used in our classroom on a daily basis, and can be shared with other teachers as needed.

Our custodians work very hard to maintain cleanliness in our building, but our own vacuum would help us to keep our room clean, in between their deep cleanings.

Thank you for your consideration in funding this project!
