My Students

Residing in a low-income community, my students are faced with challenges daily in and out of the classroom. My students are part of a Title 1 school community in which 70% of students receive free or reduced lunch.

My students are creative and active learners residing in Chesapeake, Virginia.

Despite the challenges my students may face, I am determined to ensure that all students have what they need in order to be successful in and out of the classroom setting.

My Project

By donating to this project, you will enable my students to actively participate within the general education classroom setting. Many of my students struggle to remain seated and often need to move around. By providing my students with these adaptive seating options, my students will have a chance to incorporate their movement within their learning without distracting others.

These stools will be utilized throughout the classroom to allow students to continue to move while completing their work.

My ultimate goal is to provide all students in my class an opportunity to utilize a 'movement' chair to optimize their movement and learning.
