My Students

My students are an incredible group of young learners. All of my students are in a special education classroom.

During this incredibly difficult time, they have never given up.

They showed up every day and tried their best to learn no matter how hard it may have been over a computer. These kids especially benefit from being in the classroom, learning hands-on with their teacher and peers. It is so important that we are all able to stay healthy so we can continue to do our best learning in the classroom!

My Project

Cleaning supplies have been very hard to come by since the pandemic started. These few cleaning supplies are vital to keeping my students and myself healthy so we can continue learning. An air purifier will help make sure the air is continuously staying clean. Hand sanitizer and wipes will help us make sure we are keeping ourselves and all of our learning materials germ free. Keeping our classroom and ourselves clean is so important as we all know how quick this virus spreads. Please help us make sure we can keep learning in person in school!
