My Project

Our elementary school is a brand new school in our school district. This school will serve approximately 400 pre-kindergarten through fourth grade students. Some students will need extra guidance as it may be the first time being in school, a new situation, or just struggling because of life outside of school. These tools will allow them to cope with what is going on in their life and be focused and ready to tackle each new school day.

Help me help our students!

This project will help students who have sensory and behavior struggles. These resources will provide tools to calm students and help them succeed in school. By providing fidgets, books, sensory seating, and games, this will allow students to express their needs in a positive, school-appropriate way.

Please help me to help these students to be successful. All students can learn, and my goal is to meet them at their point of need. When students are given the right tools, they can start their way to a positive, successful school career.
