My Project
Our special education classroom is committed to creating an environment where every student can thrive academically and emotionally. One powerful way to achieve this is by implementing flexible seating options. Research shows that flexible seating not only enhances engagement but also significantly supports mental health by allowing students to choose environments that work best for their individual needs.
Our goal is to provide a range of seating choices and tools that cater to different learning styles and comfort levels.
This approach will help reduce anxiety, increase focus, and make our classroom a more inclusive and supportive space for all learners.
Your donation will help us purchase these flexible seating options and transform our classroom into a dynamic, responsive learning environment. Together, we can foster a classroom where every student feels supported, engaged, and ready to succeed.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
