Bringing Comfort to the Classroom

Help me give my students a comfortable area for rest time. These cots can be used for several years and are easily sanitized.

My Students

My students are very special to me! They love coming to school and I love seeing their smiling faces running up to hug me when they get here. We are a title one school with all ESE Pre-K; funding is not always available. Thanks so much for any contributions.

My Project

These mats will be used during nap/ rest time. We are a Title 1 school and while some of our families can afford mats, sadly most of our children can not. We are also an overflow location; which means we get our students as the other locations fill up so the families that can afford the mats may not be able to find them by the time the students get placed with us. With the cots I would not have to ask the parents to try to locate mats. The cots can be used and sanitized for several years.
