My Project

My students are in need of essential classroom items to start the new school year. We are a transitional based vocational high school. I am a PAES Lab teacher. PAES stands for "Practical Assessment Exploration System" where students learn daily living skills and entry level job skills. Students practice over 200 job skills that can lead to a variety of entry level positions. As a special education program, we are committed to exposing our students to a variety of entry level jobs to support their future goals.

We are requesting classroom essentials to support our vocational program and to help our classroo.

flow with additional tools and items needed to complete daily jobs.

We are requesting cleaning products to teach our students how to complete consumer service and maintenance tasks to lead to future careers in hospitality, food service and maintenance or household care. We are also requesting items to support our kitchenette to learn how to cook. Lastly we would like items to support a safe work-like classroom for simulated job completion.
