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

Help us keep our classroom sparkling and safe!

As a kindergarten teacher, I always remind my students: “We spread kindness, not germs!” In our classroom, learning is hands-on, full of creativity, and yes—sometimes a little messy!

That’s part of the magic of early learning, but it also means we need to be extra mindful of cleanliness.

To ensure a safe and healthy learning environment, I’m requesting essential cleaning supplies like Swiffer dry and wet cloths, disinfecting wipes, and spray. These items will help me keep our classroom clean at the end of each day and ready for a fresh start every morning.

When our space is clean, we’re helping to prevent the spread of germs, which means fewer absences and more days filled with learning, growing, and laughing together. Your support will make a huge difference—not just in supplies, but in creating a healthier and happier environment for my little learners.

Thank you so much for helping us stay healthy and ready to learn each day!

Ms. Lopez 32nd - USC Performing Arts School Grades PreK-2
