FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Bezue's classroom raised $899

My Project
Our students have faced an abundance of hardships this year, experiencing more than their fair share of heartaches. Many of them were already dealing with personal traumas, and the additional challenge of a tornado has made this year particularly tough for them.
In my role as a Student Service Coordinator, it is both my duty and privilege to provide assistance to our students.
A dedicated seating area in my classroom will offer a comfortable space for those seeking support and conversation. Throughout my day, I devote a significant amount of time to listening to the concerns and frustrations expressed by my students. Currently, the only seating options available, aside from desks, are well-worn beanbags that do not provide the level of comfort I wish to offer.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
