We have a severe shortage of desks at our school. The students in the general education classrooms all have desks of their own, but in my special education classroom we were only offered a few tables to fit my students around. In this potentially dangerous time of in-person learning during the Covid-19 pandemic, seating my students so close together at shared tables is a serious health risk. My students find it difficult to keep their masks over their faces all day, and they often forget to practice basic hygiene such as using a tissue to wipe their noses or remembering to wash their hands after they use the bathroom. Additionally, students with autism and other disabilities find it stressful and emotionally taxing to be in such close proximity with each other and not have their own personal space. Having a desk of their own would not only keep my students safer health-wise, but would also make it much easier for classmates to respect their boundaries.
