My Project

My kids in fifth period are hard workers and very intelligent but they need a lot of help with focus and attention. We currently have tables but it is very difficult to arrange them in a way that would increase positive behaviors and effort and squash the off-task behaviors that can take away from learning. We want to start the Lunar New Year off on the right foot, these desks will give us a clean slate and a fresh start. We want to learn all about the new beginnings that are celebrated in early February and late January following the Gregorian calendar.

Please help me to get these amazing Neo combination desks, this will be a multi project undertaking.

We will phase in two desks at a time and work on funding them. The desks will be given to the students who need them most. I am all about meeting student needs. My classroom is all about meeting each students needs to increase their academic performance and growth. Thank you for helping us to get these desks to optimize our classroom environment.
