My Project

I teach about 450 students a week between two schools and it is challenging and we often go through many supplies. Students have worked very hard this year, but we could use some things that would help us finish this year strong. These help many special education students keep creative while also allowing them breaks to play with educational toys. Students would really appreciate all of these new supplies to start off the new year. These help students thrive the rest of the school year and get creative in the Art room!
