My Project

I love how curious, creative, and collaborative my students are. They thrive when given choices and the freedom to move, which is why flexible seating is so important and essential for learning.

Standing desks help students who focus better while moving, small group desks support teacher-led instruction, and trapezoid desks on wheels make it easy to create groupings for peer collaboration.

These additions will allow students to collaborate more easily, stay engaged, and choose seating that supports their learning styles. Flexible seating fosters a dynamic, student-centered environment where every learner can thrive.students will feel empowered to take ownership of their learning and stay engaged throughout the day in a space that adapts to their needs.
