Flexible Seating to Promote Independent Reading in the School Library

Funded Oct 29, 2024

Thank you friends as you made it possible for this DonorsChoose project to happen. Some of you who donated are current teachers and donating for a project beyond what you spend out of pocket for your own classroom or classrooms and that is amazing. Some of you are previous teachers or educators and your donation helped support current students who you will never meet or teach. Educators in any capacity are magical because they believe in helping others, they believe in people, and they believe in people's potential for the future. By supporting future generations, we are all helping!

I know buying reading chairs might sound like it is not shaping our future generation, but school libraries do help prepare all students for a better future through literacy. Providing comfortable seating to sit down with a book.. be it alone... with a friend ... as a small group, all of that promotes reading. I am sorry I cannot show photos of students enjoying these chairs (which they are and immensely), but there are privacy laws. All of your donations helped make more comfortable seating options possible and I thank you greatly!”

With gratitude,

Ms. B
