My Students
My students are amazing, they overcome challenges presented to them every day. The disabilities range from autism to downs syndrome and cerebral palsy. My students are all unique and talented, they each experience in different ways, most of them are visual learners.
All my students enjoy expressing themselves through their artwork.
I teach the entire school, therefore I am always in need of art supplies. Some of my students are non-verbal, art is their only means of expression and communication in several instances.
Every day I get hugs from students asking me what we will be doing in art next. I created an "art club" so we can continue to do even more projects, including decorations and set designs for the performing arts productions in our school. The energy and enthusiasm of my students are beyond comprehension.
My Project
Due to Covid-19 and social distancing, it has been difficult to make art in our school. I shared all my classroom art materials with all my classes, that is no longer allowed. Each student must have their own individual art supplies to keep and use. I was able to give out some markers for them to keep but I don't have enough paints and other art materials. I need to get more art materials to give out to each and every student so we can make art like we used to. Without these essential and basic art supplies, there will be no art, there will be no self-expression. Please help us to get these materials.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
