Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

Adaptive seating is not just about physical support, but rather a crucial element that impacts multiple aspects of a special needs child's development, education, and overall well-being of feeling safe in the classroom.

Comfort is important and my goal is to provide the right seating solution that can significantly enhance my students' ability to participate in daily activities such as circle time, story time, during g-tube feedings and for the sensory area of the classroom when students need to take a break from all the hard work they are putting in during the day.
