My school is located in a low-income neighborhood with scholars from diverse backgrounds. Over 75% of the population qualifies for free school meals.
Despite socioeconomic disadvantages, our melting pot of scholars possess a positive outlook on learning.
Each child is unique and deserve quality resources and experiences that will shape their future. Being that we are a Title I school however, it’s often a challenge to find funding to purchase materials and resources. Basic classroom supplies and technology are in high demand in our school and our students deserve to experience high quality education and resources.
My Project
Our class cannot get enough of flexible seating! With flexible seating options, every scholar will be able to feel included and choose a seating style that best suits them.
With your help, scholars will receive a swivel task chair, tractor seat, and inflatable donut balls.
These items will be added to our flexible seating classroom which our scholars love! Despite socioeconomic disadvantages, our melting pot of scholars possess a positive outlook on learning and deserve a 21st century classroom that will support their learning styles.
