It has been a fun hands-on activity to engage my students. \r\n\r\nCold season has hit our school and having a supply of tissues for our classroom has really helped with runny noses and keeping students clean and comfortable. We are grateful to have the much needed resource. I have also set up a comfy reading/independent work station with the chair you helped fund.
