My Project

I would like to replace the current rug that I have with this project. Students sit on this rug everyday for whole group instruction. They are also allowed to choose a flexible seating option for independent work and many choose to sit on the rug.

My students deserve this rug as we are a Title 1 school.

The rug that I have chosen is brightly colored to match a new classroom theme. It is big enough to seat several students comfortably so that they can be successful.

This fully funded project would show my students that there are other people in this world that care about them and their future.
