Lighting the Way: a Cozy Classroom for Creative Minds
Help me give my students calming seating and enchanting decorative lighting to create a welcoming, creative classroom environment that inspires focus, comfort, and joy while learning.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Corkin's classroom raised $480

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My students are creative, resilient, and eager to learn, despite the challenges they face in our Title I school. They deserve a classroom that reflects their potential and inspires their growth. The ECR4Kids Leaf Floor Seats will provide flexible seating for small group activities, fostering collaboration and focus. Meanwhile, the decorative string lights and ivy garlands will transform our room into a calming, welcoming environment where students feel safe to express themselves.
The lights will also be used during reading and mindfulness activities to create a peaceful atmosphere.
Together, these resources will inspire focus, creativity, and joy, helping my students succeed.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
