My Project
Our goal is to provide a more focused and distraction-free learning space by purchasing classroom dividers. These dividers will create quiet areas where students can work independently, improving their ability to concentrate and succeed academically.
By reducing distractions, these dividers will help students build their independence, confidence, and ability to stay on task.
They will also support small group instruction, allowing for more effective teaching and learning. With designated quiet spaces, students will have the opportunity to practice self-regulation, enhance their focus, and experience greater academic success.
We are seeking donations to purchase high-quality, durable classroom dividers that can be easily moved and adjusted to meet the needs of our students. Any contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference in creating a more supportive learning environment.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
