My Project

The classroom I inherited has been well loved and well used over the many decades. There are many items that need to be replaced and upgraded, but seating will directly benefit and help all my students. Slowly, I would like to continue improving my classroom, to help my students and the experiences they have in my room.

This project will allow all my students to be provided with ergonomically sound seating that will also give them the opportunity to use more concert type seating, as they are learning and playing their instruments.

The music stands will keep them focused on playing music, as the current ones often slip during their use.
