My Project

As a new teacher to New River School, I currently just have chairs.

The following specific items such as: the Lakeshore Cozy Corner Canopy, Lakeshore Flex-Space Balance Ball Seat, a Lakeshore Comfy Rectangular Classroom Carpet, a Lakeshore-Flex-Space Big Beanbag Seat, and 15 inch Round Floor Cushions, will enable my students to utilize the entire room in a way that is comfortable for them to think and work.

My students are special because they have a passion to think critically and creatively. They are bright students on this campus that I get the opportunity to teach. I want to foster an environment that will enable them to do there best, in a warm and inviting space.
