Teacher Survey Comments
• Windows are needed; a lot of the environment has to do with provided programing/instruction, but the physical space has impact. The electrical devices are problematic in ease of use, sight for students, cords, etc.
• The room is very cramped. Would be nice to have windows. A dry erase board would be much appreciated.
