My Students

My students are third through fifth grade students from a small community in Wyoming. My school is composed about 260 students and 25 educators. We have a great school community but still have our struggles.

We incorporate a culture that all students can learn at a high level.

As the school counselor, I help teachers problem solve to reach all students. Some barriers are more difficult to overcome for students. I have seen first hand that donorchoose.org can make a difference in how my school can serve students.

My Project

A traditional classroom setting does not always provide the best learning environment for all students. Some students learn better from standing during certain times of the day. Other students struggle with sitting still in their seats and provide a safety risk by tipping in their chairs. However, many schools do not provide alternative furniture unless purchased by the teacher.

Sometimes it's a simple solution to help students learn.

I am hoping to obtain three standing desks with taller stools and five 18 inch stools for a 5th grade classroom. Some of the students in this classroom are struggling with the traditional style of classroom furniture.
