My Project

We need your help! We are requesting new tables and chairs in order to create a modern classroom. Currently, our tables and chairs are falling apart. Many are close to 30 years old. Along with this, the chairs rock and are in terrible shape. With our students fully returning after Covid, we would like to provide them with a nicer setting.

These chairs and tables will create a computer lab where we can all be proud to learn and study.

This furniture will be used for all subjects in sixth grade.

The tables will be used by the students to do their everyday work. They are also the perfect design for labs and other activities. For all the subjects we cover, these are exactly what we need. They will work for history, science, and even art projects. The chairs will allow our students to sit at the exact right level. This will allow them to stay focused on their work.

We realize that this is a huge request, but everything in this room is well past its prime. To be honest, it was past its prime ten years ago. By helping us with this, you will allow our students to learn in conditions that are comparable to other classrooms around the country.

Please help us solve our seating paradox!
