My Students

No student should be faced with a classroom that cannot provide the basic supplies needed to develop, grow, and succeed.

My people are in grades K-2 and have been diagnosed with autism and/or an intellectual disability.

Our classroom is in a public school in a large urban district that is currently experiencing an unprecedented financial crisis. We aim to provide a fun and rigorous learning environment that works toward developing the behaviors and academic skills needed to transition into the mainstream classroom. My students love coming to school every day to see what adventure awaits them.

My Project

I'm a teacher so I know how to pinch a penny. Many of the supplies requested, such as laminating film, dry erase markers, card stock, and Velcro will allow me to create activities that can be reused year after year instead of wasting our precious supply of paper. I have also requested basic art supplies (glue, glitter, and water colors) that can be used for an endless number of projects that promote fine motor and sequencing skills, while allowing my students to increase their ability to creatively express themselves.

My students are the unfortunate victims of a school district in crisis.

Without the support from the public, precious time needed for instructional planning is used trying to find ways to inexpensively acquire the most basic classroom needs. We are desperate. Please help us.
