Mr. Curtis from Greenbrier TN is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

No More Sleeping Students

Help me give my students the ability to go from sitting to standing. The SHW 55-inch desk will help two or more students to collaborate while standing. The other desk top items will enable students to stand.

My Students

I currently teach pre-calculus, geometry and sails math. My students are amazing and really try their best to meet my standards for each class. They come ready to learn and with a positive attitude each day. These students range from 10th-12th grad. They act very mature for their age. They are discipline, calm, and easy to work with. These students stay humble and continue to show a level-head when things get tough.

My Project

Th adjustable desks will help my students stay focused, and awake. I have students who need to stand to deal with their excess energy. These desks will help accommodate students with an IEP as well. Standing desks can increase the amount of information received, and will help burn calories in the process.

The electric desk will be used to accommodate two or more students.

If I give students a project, then they can have a meeting space that will bring them out of their seats. Tall students will be able to comfortably work on these desks.
