My Students
WGS is located on the lost coast of California in an area that is so remote, California Highway 1 stops before you reach it. This beautiful community school exists because the residents wanted their children to go to school in the same community in which they lived. The parents came together to build the school using their own resources and skills. It is a magical, forested setting located on the side of a mountain where everyone is family. The students have attended school together their entire lives. They know and love each other as only a family can.
My Project
My students currently spend a lot of time in groups working collaboratively. In order to allow students more flexibility and hopefully inspire more creativity, I am building an area where students can sit and work without having to stay seated at a desk or in a chair. We have a very nice rug and just three cushions. The students often disagree about whose turn it is to use the few cushions that I have. The conflict is taking up precious time that could be spent learning.
By providing students with more seating options, students will be able to spend more time focused on the lesson while increasing their productivity and engagement in the learning.
Giving students the option to choose their best way to learn will allow opportunities for students to take more responsibility for their education. They will identify which option works best for them and, hopefully, improve their education experience.
More than half of students from low‑income households
