My Project

Students will be able to collaborate in pairs and small groups or concentrate in a comfortable spot on their own with their new flexible seating in a bright, cheerful place to learn. Flexible seating allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them.

By donating to our project, you will assist in creating a flexible seating space to engage and activate creativity and innovation in our students.

The conversation zone and stacking benches can be maneuvered in different positions to work together. The storage benches provide comfy spots to gather and enough space to store clipboards and pencils for creating.

I have seen how choice can positively affect students' work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us learn and grow even more!
