My Project
The COVID-19 pandemic kept many young people from being as active as they should be. Daily interactions between people were limited, and when students returned to school, they were often kept to specific spaces to control distance between them. In my social studies classroom, I try to engage my students in activities that allow them to stand and move and interact with each other. However, students still need to read, write, listen, and do other academic activities that are largely sedentary.
Purchasing standing desks for my classroom will allow some of my students to work more flexibly and freely during class time.
Even in high school, many students need to be more active and can’t be expected to sit still in chairs for over six hours every day. I know these standing desks will help some of my students to stretch, relax, focus, and learn more in my classroom.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
