My Project

Our school is for students with moderate to severe disabilities living in low-income neighborhoods. 8th grade graduation is a hallmark event for our students with special needs.

Please help us to decorate our gym for this amazing event with balloons and streamers and provide our students with awards and certificates that will surely put a smile on all of their faces.

Every milestone in a student's educational journey deserves to be celebrated! We strive to inspire our students to dream big and take pride in their accomplishments. Thank You!
