My Project

Hello, my students and I wanted to thank you all for your consideration. We are requesting a sensory light table and accessories to enhance the sensory room space in our classroom and to help them regulate and recharge throughout the school day. We are an autism focused special education classroom that focuses on academics as well as the ability to identify their feelings/emotions and regulate as needed throughout the rigorous school day. Thank you again for your support and contribution to our learning environment, we appreciate all that you do.
