My Students

Our Kindergarten students are so excited to learn and ecstatic to start the new school year! This is the first time for some of our students stepping into a classroom due to the pandemic we know they’re resilient and will have a great year given the proper materials.

We will be investing any donations in sensory pathways for our students!

The materials we chose will help students combat their distractions and introduce learning in a fun and interactive way. Students will be able to learn in new ways, using physical objects and visuals to support their learning while practicing math and reading.
