The Work of Education Revolves Around the Best Environment

Help me give my students a comfortable learning environment that they do not get at home due to being ACE and low-income students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Borden's classroom raised $970

My Project

Many of my students are part of different special populations and have struggled academically throughout their school careers. The requested resources, such as gaming chairs and a desk, will give these students a comfortable safe environment to help them bridge the gaps that they have acquired in learning and put them on the right foot to be successful through alternative cooperative education. It will also bring them to the forefront of technology use in education and help them with life skills for the future. We can now help low-performing students understand the needs for technological skills with working computers and comfortable work stations to be successful.
