My Project

Our classroom rug is the heart of our learning space—we gather there multiple times a day for morning meetings, collaborative activities, partner work, and shared lessons. It’s where students connect, share ideas, and build a strong sense of community.

A large, comfortable rug makes this space feel inviting and safe.

Unfortunately, our current rug is over 10 years old, stained, and worn thin. Students have begun to comment on how uncomfortable it feels. A new rug would not only refresh our learning environment but also support student engagement by providing a clean, cozy space where they can focus, collaborate, and feel at home in our classroom.
