My Project

My classroom is filled with exceptional students with varying learning abilities and needs. In my classroom we currently teach and service students with specific learning disabilities, Autism, ADHD-like characteristics, and Other Health Impairments across a span of 4 different grade levels.

My students try their very best to access the curriculum however are in dire need of blocking some of the daily sensory input.

For this, we need your help.

Help us in purchasing noise canceling headphones for each of our students so that they may "cancel the noise!" and focus on their learning.
