My Project

The goal of this project is to make our transition to our new modular classroom as easy and smooth as possible. I believe that with the help of our community, creating an engaging and positive learning environment will benefit our scholars tremendously as it relates to academic success.

The storage cabinet is essential to productivity and functionality of the classroom.

The goal is to keep the classroom organized and accessible for scholars.

Creating a “creative corner” with bean bag chairs and a rug can significantly enhance student learning and social engagement by providing a relaxed, flexible, and welcoming learning space.
