My Project
My students would like an outdoor patio bench that will be placed on their outdoor playground. My students are always looking for a place to sit and relax. We do not have much seating when it comes to the outdoors. Students, who are able, often end up sitting in the grass.
We would also like for this bench to serve as a memorial spot for one of our students who passed away last week.
We thought it would be nice to have this beautiful bench and a plaque engraved with the student's name. The students will plant flowers around the bench in the spring when the weather is much better. We really appreciate your kindness and willingness to help us out!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
