My Project
We are seeking funding to purchase comfortable, flexible furniture for classrooms as well as the college and career center to enhance these spaces where students spend a significant portion of their day. This initiative aims to provide students with a relaxing space to unwind during lunch, club activities, and study sessions, ultimately fostering a greater sense of community and well-being. The primary goal of this project is to offer students a comfortable environment where they can relax, socialize, and recharge.
By introducing bean bags, bean chairs, and other flexible seating, we can create areas that support peer interaction, collaboration, and mental health.
These spaces will provide students with the opportunity to take breaks, engage with others in a low-pressure environment, and feel more connected to their school community. Having a designated space for relaxation also promotes better focus and productivity during academic or extracurricular activities.
The College and Career Center, as well as classrooms, are integral to students' personal and academic lives. Providing flexible, comfortable furniture will help create a welcoming atmosphere, encouraging students to engage with peers, work on projects, and participate in club activities. Additionally, it supports the school's commitment to diversity and inclusion by offering seating that caters to various needs and preferences.
By investing in these student spaces, we are taking a step toward improving the overall climate and culture of our school. Offering areas for students to relax, engage, and connect with one another will contribute to a positive, supportive school environment that empowers students to succeed both academically and socially.
More than half of students from low‑income households
