My Project

My students are each amazing individuals with unique needs. They are all severely intellectually disabled with additional physical handicaps. They are low or non-verbal and communicate in their own way. These kids take pride in learning new skills and love making and having friends. They are truly the "rock stars" of our school. We facilitate our students socializing and attending events with the general population.

These items requested in this project will create a safe space so students can calm themselves when they are overwhelmed or stimulate their brains when they need some help focusing.
