A Rest For The Weary

My students need 15 lab stools.

  • $527 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Students in a poor district need stools! Please help! I currently teach every science class in my high school. This includes Chemistry, Biology I & II, Physics, Forensics, Physical Science, Astronomy, and Environmental Science. This also includes 9-12 grade students. Our school is in a poor, rural area. We have little money to spend on supplies.

Tired bottoms! Need Help! Our school district is in a rural, poor area. We have little money for supplies. Our lab has never had lab stools and this in an obstacle in the laboratory setting.

I need 15 lab stools. This will benefit my students because it allows them to sit during long labs. It will prevent them from getting into trouble because they want to push and shove and walk around the room freely. They lost interest quickly when they get tired!

You will make a difference for my students and for me by funding this project. The students will be able to settle down in lab and learn more by being able to sit. When they stand up all hour they get restless and start to lose interest. They need to be able to sit and think about what they are doing without distractions caused by the students being able to move freely about.
