My Project

My students are learning in an environment that contains ever-changing technology.

However, learning in a district that is located in a rural, low-income population often means the necessary accessories to compliment the technology is not always available.

Providing a stand-up desk along with a stool will provide an area for technology to be safely placed for usage. It will assist in quickly and easily accessing the items, allowing the flow of the lesson and activities to not be interrupted.

Exposing my students to the latest classroom furniture gives them the opportunity to be more comfortable in future establishments located outside of our simple country setting.

Mrs. Pugno
Grades 3-5
  • Newaygo Middle School
  • Newaygo, MI
  • More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 125 students.
