My Project

I love watching these kids come in as wild junior high students and grow into young adults learning how to become responsible for their own work.

New stools for their science classroom would help them focus more on the process of learning instead of the lack of furniture in their environment.

We currently have a few hand-me-down stools left over from the art department when they got new ones. Most of the ones we have are painted on and slightly wonky and out of shape. We typically lose two a year that can no longer be repaired. For 24 lab stations we are down to 11 functional stools.
