A teacher at a private school in Georgia came up with a solution to social distancing in a small classroom, making use of vertical space.
The teacher, who teaches shop and handyman classes at Eaton Academy in Roswell, constructed a “Safety Social Station” a wooden platform that lifts a student’s desk 2-3 feet off the ground.
The platform adds an extra 6-8 inches of space between the student seated on the platform and the nearest ground-level desk.
The teacher said a patent is pending on the invention and he believes it could be put to use in other classrooms, where teachers want a little more space from their students.
