Imagine classrooms where young learners gather together for story time, joyful discussions, and hands-on learning—all from the comfort of a cozy classroom carpet. In our K–2 classroom, the carpet is more than just flooring—it’s the heart of our learning space.
Our current carpets are worn, torn and not ideal for little ones to sit and engage comfortably.
A classroom carpet will give our students a welcoming, designated space to build community, share ideas, and focus during key parts of the day like morning meeting, phonics instruction, and read alouds.
Many of our students are just beginning their educational journey, and having a soft, safe, and structured gathering spot helps them feel grounded and ready to learn. Your support will create a classroom environment that promotes comfort, connection, and confidence—one sit spot at a time.
Please help us turn our classroom into a warm and inviting space where learning begins from the ground up!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
