Big Chairs for Big Kids!

Help me give my students big kid chairs for our classroom teacher table!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pinkston's classroom raised $428

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our class loves having small group and doing art centers at our teacher table! The chairs in our room now are smaller for Kindergarten Kiddos but they make it hard for the students to reach the table for projects.

We are asking for new chairs in order for the kids to be able to sit up higher and reach their activities!

The higher chairs will allow for the kids to sit on their bottoms and not on their knees, helping them be safer and avoiding falling out of chairs.

Our class is absolutely amazing and they love school so much. They work hard and play hard! They deserve the best we can give them!
