My Project

It's hard to keep a classroom clean with so many students using it daily. This vacuum would help us control the dust and bring longer life to our computer equipment. The dust sticks to everything. The tennis balls would also make the chairs glide easily on the floor. I have them now but they wear out in a few months. The normal chair feet tear into the floor tiles and make the room look old and not welcoming to my students and all the tours that come through our school.
