My Project

My students love to learn in a variety of ways. Since returning to school following our Covid 19 shutdowns and then long periods of quarentine, flexible seating options and hands on learning experiences have become very popular avenues of engagement.

The addition of more seating options like bean bags and a wedge pillow as well as the restocking of classroom materials, supplies and books will help fill in gaps in student learning, social emotional needs, and lack of materials.

With these donations I will be able to continue to provide comfortable flexible seating options and have the materials/supplies needed to help teach the whole child.
