  • Zen Out With Flexible Seating

    Funded Oct 19, 2023

    The day the materials arrived my students where so excited. They kept pacing back and forth waiting for the boxes to be opened. The time finally came when we opened the boxes, as they began to see what was in them, they cheered and jumped with excitement. You should have seen their expressions and laughter, it was priceless.

    Before the flexible seating, the students had a hard time staying focused and having stamina for reading. Now, thanks to the wonderful Storex Wiggle Stools and the Flex-Space Premium Floor Seats my student's focus and stamina level has increased by 100%.

    My students are so excited about their flexible seating that they get upset when the timer goes off and its time to return to their regular seats. Would you believe that they even came up with their own flexible seating schedule? They said that this would insure that all students get to use the flexible seating and no one is left out.

    From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your generous donation. It has made a an incredible difference in my student's reading stamina and focus. Thanks to you, they are making great strides in their reading levels.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Berumen

  • Calming Area

    Funded Jan 11, 2023

    Being able to provide a calming corner for my students was instrumental in ensuring a safe space where they could gravitate towards. When my student's first unveiled the calming corner, they beamed with excitement. They couldn't believe they had a place where they could take some time for themselves. In their eyes, the opportunity to take a few quiet moments seemed to bring joy. The beanbag, the timers, and the stacking rocks allowed for a safe, designated spot in the class to regroup when they were experiencing strong emotions or needed a break. The calming corner provided students an opportunity to manage emotions in healthy ways. Students were able to sit down and use the posters to help remind them of strategies for calming down when faced with strong emotions. Words cannot describe how extremely grateful my students and I are for the generous contributions made by donors such as yourselves.

    Once again, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for making this possible.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Berumen
