My Project

My students come from an area of low income, and quite a few struggling parents. I want to be able to provide for my students the best I can, with the hope of a little help with a few things here.

I would like help to provide a small group area with safe and effective seating for everyone, as well as provide snacks so no student goes without.

I think the seating is very important because I always want my students to be safe and also be able to learn without worrying about falls. The snacks are important because not everyone can afford snacks, and I do not want anyone to go without.
