Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The Surf Portable Lap Desks and flexible seating options I'm requesting aim to enhance their learning experience by offering comfort and flexibility. With these resources, students can choose the seating option that best suits their preferences and work comfortably wherever they feel most productive.

My goals for this project are to create a supportive classroom environment where every student feels valued and respected, and to optimize learning outcomes by catering to individual needs and preferences.

What makes my students special is their determination to succeed despite facing various challenges. They bring a wealth of experiences to the classroom, enriching our discussions and fostering a sense of community. The Surf Portable Lap Desks and flexible seating options are investments in their well-being and success, empowering them to thrive academically and personally.
