My Project

The goal for this project is to provide flexible seating options and storage for my students. I see over 800 kiddos a week and some of them have different needs than others. The seating will be used so we can play instruments easier and more often! The storage will make grabbing classroom instruments go more smoothly. Since I see so many students, once a week, and only for 50 minutes - I want to make their music experience as much fun as I can! They deserve it! The students at our school have a passion for making music, and these stools and floor cushions will make it easier. Thank you so much for your contribution!
