My Project

Dear Donors,

I am excited to share my project with you.

My goal is to provide my students with comfy floor seats to create a flexible, inviting and supportive learning environment. These seats will allow my students to move away from traditional desks and comfortably while engaging in small group work, independent reading, and collaborative activities. This flexibility will help them focus better, feel more relaxed, and take ownership of their learning space.

My students are special because they come to school each day filled with curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning, despite the challenges they may face outside the classroom. the thrive when given choices and opportunities to learn in ways that suit their needs and personalities.

Sincerely,

Marisol Veras
