My Project

The addition of well-organized storage bins will be transformative for our student-run coffee cart and merchandise store. These bins will provide a designated space for everything from coffee items and cups to handcrafted student merchandise, ensuring efficient operations and minimizing clutter. A dual-screen setup will enhance the learning experience, allowing students to simultaneously manage inventory, process sales, and display promotional materials, fostering a more professional and engaging environment.

To create a calming atmosphere, light covers that diffuse a soft blue hue will be installed, promoting focus and reducing sensory overload.

Finally, incorporating life skills activities, such as budgeting, inventory management, and customer service role-playing, will empower students with essential practical skills, building their confidence and preparing them for future success. Lastly, having the contact paper and boarder will help decorate our classroom to create a more inclusive environment.
