My Project

Students should come to school to learn; not come worried if they will contract any form of viruses in the environment. As an educator I want my students and I to feel safe, however of lately my students and I are getting sick repeatedly and we would love the opportunity to have cleaning supplies to ensure our safety.

Can you imagine a child trying to learn but has to be constantly going to the restroom to wipe his/her nose as well as to hide their constant coughing.

It’s not easy seeing the tears knowing the environment is a contributing factor.
