My Project

Every single item in this DonorsChoose project will be used school wide to assist in every day situations. In education, we need assistance from wherever we can get it and these items will be great in assisting our sweet babies.

We need to calm down.

Every day our children are faced with things that they shouldn't have to worry about and they need help in refocusing and regulating their bodies. These games, clothes and items will do just that. They will help the teachers deal with behavior challenges as well as classmates deal with their day to day challenges.

When our students come to school, we want them to have all the tools to succeed and these things are just another tool in their belt.
