Flexibility Fuels Focus

Help me give my students a classroom that supports all learning styles and keeps students motivated every day!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Horton's classroom raised $570

My Project

My students thrive when they have choice and movement. Traditional desks limit their focus and energy. With flexible seating—like wobble stools, cushions, and lap desks—they’ll stay more engaged and comfortable.

Flexible seating isn’t just about comfort—it’s about giving students ownership of their learning.

Research shows that when students have choice and movement, their focus, behavior, and academic performance improve. These seating options will support learners who need to fidget, stretch, or find a quiet space to do their best thinking.

Help me create a classroom that supports all learning styles and keeps students motivated every day!
