My Project

My students love to move and would love the ability to stand and learn. Many of my students are coming to my class after having sat the majority of the day and they struggle not to tip and fidget in their chairs.

These desks would help them stay engaged without having to stay seated for the class period.

This is a great way for them to practice healthy life skills in the health education classroom. What better way to learn than my practicing?!

Thank you for thinking about donating to my classroom!
