My Project

Our students are amazing! They are enthusiastic, good natured, (mostly) listen to directions well, and are eager to learn. They realize that living where they do gives them access to our beautiful scenic landscapes where people come from many different places to enjoy our colorful mountains and vibrant coastline. Our students are excited about all the activities our school provides in sports and after school clubs. Our middle school Art students are working in a small classroom environment that has no shelving or storage space for their projects. The class has many students, sometimes up to twenty-eight, which makes it difficult for students to work on large projects.

A large designated storage unit, like this Brent Ware Cart, where students can store their work between classes, would enable them to create beyond 2D, to access their work easily, and to assure that their project is safe from damage.

The Brent Ware cart will be perfect when my students work on 3D projects. With about one hundred students per trimester creating pottery, sculpture, paper mache, and collages, this shelving unit is a critical need to keep their 3D creations safely stored where their work will not be touched or moved by other students. Please support this hugely needed shelving unit.
