Perhaps approach your school board directly?

Thanks for the suggestion.
It's amazing the difference putting tennis balls on chair legs make! I only need 40 more to have the chairs covered.
Unless I have a student who has an accommodation like that written into their individualized programming, I'm on my own. I do have a classroom budget I could use, but I feel buying new tennis balls for the purpose of cutting them up wouldn't be the most economical way to go about things, I may send an email out to a few of the Tennis clubs around the city.
