My Project

Our school teaches to each student at their individual level. In any given class period, I could be teaching 5-10 different lessons to small groups. This often requires the ability to sit my students in small groups at various tables.

Our current stools have thin legs, resulting in tipping and bending of the stool legs.

By the end of this school year, I will have to get rid of many of my current stools, as they will no longer be safe for students to sit on. These stools will not only replace what I have to throw out, but are much sturdier and should not bend and tip.
