As a school administrator or facilities manager, it’s vital that you equip your students and staff with the best tools to maximize their productivity. When it comes to furnishing a classroom with flexible seating, there are many different factors to consider.
One of the most important decisions you’ll have to make is what type of classroom furniture, specifically school chairs or kid chairs, to use. Not only will comfortable and functional classroom chairs promote better learning, but they’ll also help keep your staff and students healthy and happy.
Today, there are many types of school chairs available on the market as well as teacher chairs. Fortunately, at Shiffler Equipment, we offer a diverse selection of student chairs, stools, and seating for a wide variety of educational institutions.
Classroom School Chairs
When choosing school chairs for your classroom, it’s important to consider the specific needs of your organization. Elementary schools and high schools alike should go through a checklist of needs for their classroom school chairs. From seat height to chrome frame, here are a few factors to keep in mind for picking a school chair:

- Are they for students or staff?
- Will they be used for tasks such as sitting at a desk or standing at a workbench?
- Size :
- How large is the space you’re furnishing?
- How many people will need to be accommodated?

- How long will people sit in them?
- Surroundings :
- What’s the environment of the room you’re furnishing?
- Some materials are better suited for certain types of floors or carpets.
- Keep in mind that if a chair has arms, it may not slide as well on a certain floor type.

School Chairs: Frequently Asked Questions
Do the Classroom Furniture Bundles Include Everything I See in the Pictures?

Are Teacher Chairs Available?
Certainly! Students aren't the only ones we cater to. After all, teachers are the ones facilitating the learning experience, so how could we leave them out? We have teacher chairs in a variety of styles that you can choose from to fit easily into just about any aesthetic you can think of!
Do I Have to Buy Stacking Chairs as a Set?
Stacking chairs are meant to be owned as a set, as their design allows for owning them in bulk and being able to stack them whenever you want a simple storage solution. However, we understand that sometimes, customers may just want to buy one. If that is the case with you, it's no problem! We allow you to buy them individually if desired!
Are There Color Options Besides Those Displayed for the Student Chair Models?
Some models will have customization options while others don't. Maybe a black frame doesn't suit you and you wish to change it or the color overall isn't your style. Models such as the Pedagogy Badger will cover you there! Please reach out to us to discuss any custom or unique options.

Some school chairs are made from materials like plastic or metal that can be recycled, while others may need to be disassembled to separate different materials for recycling. It's important to check with local recycling facilities to determine which types of school chairs can be recycled and how to properly dispose of them.
