My Project

Students in my first-grade class are energetic and eager to learn. However, it can be difficult for them to sit still for extended periods of time. We offer a few flexible seating options in our class, but only a few students are able to benefit from them.

With your help, I can provide more seating options to help keep my students focused and engaged throughout the day.

Wobble stools are a great option for more active students, giving them a chance to move while still attending to a lesson. Rocking chairs provide comforting, enclosed spaces that reduce distractions and increase focus. Finally, the soft ottomans give students an option that is more comfortable than their traditional chairs or sitting on the floor.

We are a culturally and racially diverse district that qualifies for universal free lunch. We truly appreciate any support you can provide!
