Straight Desks — Expert Answer

What straight desk works best for a teacher in a classroom?

A teacher's desk serves different functions than a typical office desk — it needs to be visually accessible (teachers benefit from seeing students, students benefit from seeing the teacher's work area), functional for lesson prep and grading, and durable for a school environment. A 60-inch commercial straight desk is a practical size — big enough for a computer plus grading space, not so large it dominates the classroom. Pedestal storage for grade books, lesson plans, and supplies is useful. Some teachers prefer an L-shaped desk or a desk-plus-return combination so the computer is on one side and the grading/paper surface is on the other. Avoid delicate surfaces in classroom environments — a durable laminate is far more practical than wood veneer. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
