My Project

My goal is to make every child in my class feel their best so they can learn. The students in my classroom are excited, willing, and able to learn at high levels.

When students feel clean and comfortable, they are more likely to focus on their studies and participate actively in class.

Providing hygiene items such as deodorants, hand sanitizers, tissues, and disinfectant wipes can help reduce the spread of germs, leading to fewer illnesses and absences. Access to hygiene products can help students feel more confident and comfortable in school, reducing embarrassment and distraction caused by hygiene-related issues. Good personal hygiene can contribute to a positive self-image and self-esteem, which are important for social interactions and academic performance.
