My Project

At our school, students utilize Chromebooks for a majority of their work. Tablets will assist the students who forget theirs, have lost it, or if it is not charged or working. Otherwise, they don't always have an alternative to complete their assignments.

Adaptive seating is also important for our students with learning differences, because it helps them to keep their movement while also staying seated and minimizing distractions.

Fidgets, seating, and snacks are all helpful to ensure that students have all they need to succeed. Our school is a little different than traditional schools, and we want to be able to help the WHOLE student be successful in whatever ways they dream.
