Worthington Direct Delivers New School Furniture Desk Options for 2007 from Virco and Royal Seating

Desk updates appear to be in the spring air for 2007 with school furniture manufacturers Virco and Royal Seating getting into the act. Teachers face numerous challenges in the school classroom. They are tasked with teaching a wide range of learning abilities, keeping order in a culturally diverse classroom, presenting their subject matter in a way that will capture the student's interest, and just plain keeping their students alert and learning.

(PRWEB) February 16, 2007 -- To help meet these challenges, teachers look for ways to create study environments that are conducive to learning. While some may not think that school furniture is important in meeting this objective, it is in fact critical. New school furniture can brighten a room, helping both student and teacher feel comfortable in their environment. Additionally, school desks that are easy to keep organized help students reduce wasted time searching for materials and school assignments.

Worthington Direct (http://www.worthingtondirect.com) works with manufacturers who understand the need to provide quality school furniture providing an environment favorable to learning. Worthington Direct will help choose the school furniture that will help meet the needs of both teachers and students, offering a variety of school furnishings, from preschool and early child development furniture to upper level classroom desks, storage cabinets, and computer tables. Highlighting the new 2007 offerings are selections from manufactures Virco and Royal Seating.
   
Virco leads the way with seven additional plastic book box colors for 2007, Virco's popular model 785 open front student desk has a whole new look (http://worthingtondirect.com/appCatalogPartsViewList.cfm?BlockID=10358) . This expanded book box color line is available when ordered with a Fusion Maple top and Silver Mist upper-leg frame. Choose from exciting colors of Blueberry, Navy, Cucumber, Forest Green, Purple Iris, Red, and Squash. Pair these colorful desks with Virco's stack chairs such as the classic 9000 or 2000 Series, the ergonomic IQ Series, or the recently expanded ZUMA line of products and the classrooms become bright, beautifully comfortable and more exciting for the students.

Royal Seating launches the newly improved 1600 desk series (http://worthingtondirect.com/appCatalogManufacturerPartSearch.cfm?ManufacturerID=694&button.x=16&button.y=6) . In 2006, Royal reengineered the 1600 open front desks to accommodate larger classroom chairs such as the 1102 Super Shell Chair. These desks were slightly altered again for 2007. The newest generation of 1600 desks features the same benefits, dimensions and overall construction, but with a slight change in the placement of two ¾" steel supports on the front and back of the frame. This change allows more flexibility, without changing the overall construction. Models in the 1600 series include the popular 1607 open front desk, the solid plastic 1657 open front desk, and the 1687 lift lid desk. Pair these desks with Royal's line of chairs including the classic 1101 series stack chairs and the solid plastic 4102 Liberty Series stack chairs.
