My Project

Help me give our school the start of an outdoor classroom! With this cart students will be able to take their learning and their work outdoors to enjoy the sunshine and nature while they work. This will help students increase productivity and engagement at school. This will also help to benefit students' mental health, as being inside under overhead lighting can be overstimulating to many students, and bad for their overall well being. The opportunity to go outdoors and still continue their classwork will benefit student tremendously, while also continuing to further their education.
