  • We've Got The SPIRIT, So Let's Hear It!

    Funded Jan 21, 2019

    Your generous donation has made a tremendous impact on our school community . We officially have our very own school spirit squad . Students on the squad have been using the materials to perform at the school's student of the month assemblies. We are currently working on putting a routine together for Multicultural Night. Our students along with these materials are contributing to uniting students and staff as one . We are so grateful for all of your help and support . It wouldn't have been possible without you. We plan on keeping this a school tradition and will be using the materials again each and every school year.”

  • Sensory-Overload In A Good Way !

    Funded Sep 1, 2017

    The sensory tools we were able to receive thanks to your generosity have greatly impacted our students! The various fidgets are kept in our classroom's break area aka "Chill Zone". Students are able to grab a fidget of their choice while in the break area . They can also use them during our lessons when needed to stay focused! The kids especially got a kick out of our new flexible seating (wobble chair).

    Our students also LOVE the floor cushions and can't wait to get their hands on them during group work! Last but not least, the noise reduction headphones are a huge help and ACTUALLY work. Students can quickly grab a pair from the basket when the noise level becomes too much for them. My co-teacher and I are so appreciative of all the donations received! We look forward to researching more materials that could be beneficial within our NEST classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Luino

As teachers in a ASD Nest class, we know that flexibility and differentation is key. Having these resources will be extremely beneficial to the students in helping them stay focused to learn. Having various sensory materials and flexible seating options available to our students, can allow them to feel most comfortable in their learning environment, as well as increase the likelihood of on task behavior both academically and socially. For example, fidgets are utilized to stay focused and calm. Flexible seating like the wobble chair allows students to focus while moving. We know not all students learn and work in the same way which is why we want to make our classroom environment as open and flexible as possible. Please help make our classroom become more ASD friendly for students who don't deserve anything less than amazing!
