My Students
Our school is a place of refuge for our students. They enjoy coming to school because they know that they are known, valued, and loved. A large portion of our student population lives in poverty. They often come to school stressed out, tired, anxious, or even emotionally drained. Every child at our school is known, so we make a point of assessing their holistic well-being before we start our day.
With our mission in mind, that every child at our school is known, valued, and loved, I want to explore every option possible to create a learning environment that is safe and helps them "kulia i ka nu'u" (reach for the highest summit).
My students deserve to have a stress free, relaxed, and uplifting learning environment.
My Project
My students have never liked to sit still, but until now there hasn't been a place for them to sit that allows them to be their energetic selves. Kore's ingenious Wobble Stool design will allow my students to gently roll with their natural movements, so they stay supported and comfortable while they wiggle around on their stool. Ordinary chairs and stools force their growing bodies into unnatural, static positions that are uncomfortable and don't help my students' posture.
My active kiddos can sit, wiggle, and fidget on these nifty chairs while intuitively exercising their back muscles and working out their restless energy in comfort and support.
The KORE Chair is not just a piece of furniture. It is a life-changer for active students, students with ADHD, and Autistic children. Aggressive wobbling on a KORE Chair increases blood flow to the brain and thereby quiets the requirement for fidgety children to move. Children learn better and are more productive. The student who may be considered "un-teachable" is now able to learn!
More than half of students from low‑income households
