Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I request your support of a donor project to fund flexible seating for 4th graders.

Flexible seating has proven to be a game-changer in the education field.

As you may know, flexible seating is a type of seating that allows students to move around and change their position throughout the day. This type of seating has been shown to improve student focus, engagement, and academic achievement.

The students who have been able to experience learning in a flexible seating classroom showed how much more they could learn in class. We can enhance students' comfort and focus by offering them the freedom to choose where they sit. This approach helps them develop a sense of responsibility and independence while improving their overall engagement and productivity in the classroom.

A donation of any amount would be greatly appreciated. Your donation will help us provide our students with the tools they need to succeed in school.

I appreciate your consideration.
