My Project

This is my first year in a NYC DOE District 75 special education school and in a middle school medically fragile population. Students have a variety of needs and all activities are adapted to their abilities.

The basic supplies provided in this DonorsChoose list will help support the many multisensory activities we do to engage the students.

This list contains a variety of arts and crafts materials, batteries for students' communication devices, and other activities that the students can engage in throughout the day. Any materials donated would be greatly appreciated!

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
