My Project

We are a Title I school where many of our students face daily challenges beyond the classroom—yet they show up eager to learn, grow, and succeed. To better support their learning, we are seeking donor support to introduce flexible seating options in our classroom.

Traditional desks don't always meet the needs of diverse learners, especially those who struggle with focus, sensory needs, or anxiety.

Flexible seating—such as wobble stools, floor cushions, standing desks, and bean bags—allows students to choose how they learn best.

This leads to increased engagement, improved behavior, and stronger academic outcomes.
