My Project

My students are gearing up to perform in their first ever musical, Shrek Jr.! We need your help to make the show truly magical. With your support, we can provide costumes and props that will bring the characters to life on stage. Your generous donation will give my students an opportunity to showcase their talents and have their voices heard in unique and fun ways.

My students have multiple disabilities and participating in this musical is a unique and empowering opportunity for them.

It gives them an opportunity to express their creativity, build confidence, and work as a team! Arts-based instruction promotes student achievement in the areas of communication, socialization, self-expression, literacy and independence.
