My Students

My students are inquisitive and thoughtful. They love to learn but they need a clean environment to learn in.

I treat my students as if they are scholars.

It is my hope that when they leave my classroom they will learn the importance of doing good for others. I teach my students to strive for excellence and to achieve nothing less. In order to be all of these things, they need a clean environment to work in.

My Project

With a vacuum and dust buster, my students will be able to take pride in learning in a clean classroom. Research shows that students need a dust free, clutter free environment to be successful. I also want to teach my students that they need to have pride in where they work and to learn how to keep their classroom clean and organized.

With a vacuum and dust buster my students will begin to learn the importance of taking care of their surroundings by learning to stay clean and healthy.

They will also learn teamwork and persistence by helping to keep the room clean and organized.
