My Students

My students are at the beginning of their journey in discovering themselves and planning for their future.

68% of our students are economically disadvantaged and are thriving despite dealing with a multitude of issues including learning or behavioral disabilities, unstable home environments, and low academic performance placing them at risk of not graduating- along with just being a teenager!

As 9th graders, these students are taking an introductory course in business and technology allowing them to explore different career pathways.

The business and technology program utilizes both the case study learning method and project-based learning requiring students to work in project teams, analyze business scenarios and develop/recommend business solutions. The program includes local business mentors that provide feedback to the students on both the correctness and authenticity of their work.

My students will become inspired, hopeful and prepared to begin their next phase of the learning but will need some tools to facilitate the kind of immersive experience that will last beyond this school year.

My Project

My school includes only 9th graders and I am teaching business and technology courses with a project based learning model requiring transitions between independent tasks, collaboration with one or more students and whole class presentations.

This seating will allow some of my students that need movement to release energy in a non-disruptive manner and improve their focus and quality of peer to peer interaction.

Ultimately making them more productive and engaged in the classroom.

As a second year business and IT teacher, I am working to create an environment that is visually stimulating and comfortable for all types of learners with flexible seating.
