Your generosity helped us add more comfortable and dynamic seating options, and the results have been incredible!\r\n\r\nOur goal was to provide teachers with more tools to create engaging and personalized learning environments. Thanks to you, teachers can now \"rent\" items like floor rockers, wobble stools, and comfy cushions from a central bank. This has made a huge difference, allowing students to choose a seat that helps them focus and learn best.\r\n\r\nOne teacher told me, \"I have a few students who used to struggle to sit still at a traditional desk. Now, they can grab a floor cushion or a wobble stool, and their focus has improved dramatically. It's not just about comfort; it's about giving them control over their own learning.\"\r\n\r\nYour support has not only provided new furniture but has also empowered our teachers and students to create a more inclusive and effective learning space.
