Sitting Choices

Help me give my students more options for study flexible seating! My kiddos love choice and exploring their options - adding these stools would allow my students more choice in the classroom.

My Students

Our students come to us knowing they need help, and they are willing to work hard each day. Over half of our Title I school is comprised of low income families. Our students look forward to coming to school to engage in learning experiences and activities each day with their peers and staff.

Our staff is strong and creative, making our materials go far while looking for different ways help each learner.

We encourage our students to show their learning in diverse ways and to embrace their independence. We provide choices whenever we can and embrace a school-wide feeling of inclusion and togetherness.

My Project

My students enjoy free choice options in the classroom - but we are limited to a few soft chairs for the floor and the stools we have aren't sturdy enough for their active bodies. Help us replace some of our seating options with stools that will accommodate students from K-5th grade at our small group table!

Our younger students are thrilled to discover they can choose the type of seating they can have in class.

I work with some of the lowest readers in our building and we use every tool we can to excite them into learning! They currently love the stools we have, but they are breaking because we they aren't sturdy enough for their active bodies - please help me meet their needs by providing them better options.
