My Project
I am a teacher/librarian at an elementary school that serves many Navy and Army families in Hawaii. The library is the center of encouraging literacy on our preschool through sixth-grade campus. About half of the students at my school are military dependents who move locations every three years.
I would like to purchase 6 new stackable chairs that will replace my current heavy fabric chairs.
These chairs are very difficult to clean and move for collaborative seating options. The new chairs will help to provide safe and sanitized furniture for my students as we recover from the pandemic. It will give my students a feeling of well-being as they sit in these chairs to collaboratively work on projects together.
The chairs will be utilized by library classes for story time and research lessons. Students will also hold their meetings using these chairs during recess and lunchtime for the library club, student council, and book clubs.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
