Supporting Accessibility and Focus Through Adjustable Desks
Help me give my students an adjustable desk for two special education students. It is essential to supporting their individual learning and physical needs.
Providing an adjustable desk for special education students is essential to supporting their individual learning and physical needs. These students benefit from the flexibility to alternate between sitting and standing as needed, which can help reduce discomfort, increase focus, and improve overall engagement with tasks. An adjustable desk allows them to self-regulate their posture and energy levels throughout the day, fostering greater independence and accommodating sensory or physical needs that may otherwise hinder their academic progress. Ensuring they have access to this kind of adaptive furniture demonstrates a commitment to creating an inclusive, responsive learning environment where all students can thrive.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
