Let's Start At The Beginning

Help me give my students a great learning environment with properly sized desks.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O'Leary's classroom raised $944

This project is fully funded

My Project

When our school added an additional kindergarten class over five years ago, we were given leftover, mix matched, inadequately sized desks for kindergarten. Now over five years later, we still have the same desks that are not sized correctly for five year old learners.

Please help to give my students a proper table space to learn, grow and explore during their station and learning time.

It is important that they are able to properly reach and rest their arms when writing, cutting and managing manipulatives. A properly sized desk will help them succeed.
