My Project

My students will use these chairs on a daily basis. I have student groups that are pulled daily to sit in the chairs to

work on specific 4th grade & 5th grade standards that will Boost their academic learning.

They will work on ELA standards to help them pass the LEAP 2025 test! Students are eager to attend these sessions during their class RTI time. They work really hard to produce correct answers and do not mind searching for evidence to back up their answer.

Please assist us in reaching our goal for student success in our academic boost classroom. It is greatly appreciated. Please remember: Chairing is Caring!
