My Students

My students are imaginative and creative. They work hard and take pride in their education. Their families work hard to provide what they need to succeed and get the most out of their time at school. My students always deserve to get the best out of their educational experience.

My passion is to encourage and empower all of my students to reach their greatest potential.

I strive to provide lessons, activities, and the environment to help them grow to their greatest potential.

My Project

To offer students choice and comfort in my classroom, I have a variety of flexible seating options available for them to choose from. The majority of these items are ones that I have either bought and refurbished on my own, or have received from funded DonorsChoose projects.

Having a Keter Bistro table and chairs would add more variety to my flexible seating classroom.

This set would be a perfect partner seating option, providing a place to do written work or hands-on activities in math, science, and reading. My students enjoy having a variety of options, and this table and chair set would be a new and useful addition to my classroom. Thank you for considering my project!
