My Project

Our school is opening our first Autistic Support classroom for students in Kindergarten through second grade and we are so excited! We have a lot of work to prepare for our new students so we are hoping to get them some great resources that will help them transition to Kindergarten and a new school.

Opening up a new Autistic Support classroom is exciting but requires a lot of work so we are starting to prepare.

We want to make sure students have a safe place to learn with noise cancelling headphones for students with sensory issues. We also want to get a book about Autism, a nap map and alphabet bean bags to help students learn in a fun way.
