My Project

Imagine walking into a vibrant and dynamic learning space where students are actively engaged, finding the environment that best suits their individual needs. In our Kindergarten classroom here in sunny Ewa Beach, we're striving to create just that – a flexible and focused space where every child can thrive.

Right now, our classroom is a bustling hub of young minds, each with their unique learning styles and preferences.

We have some students who concentrate best while gently rocking, others who benefit from a lower, more relaxed posture, and some who simply need a quiet, focused space to truly absorb information.

To better cater to these diverse needs and create an optimal learning environment, we are reaching out for your support through DonorsChoose to acquire flexible seating options and individual headphones for our students.
