My Project

The therapy room could use some help meeting the needs of our students this year! Students from kindergarten to 8th grade will come to this room to receive occupational therapy services to further their success in school.

These amazing students deserve a space that makes them feel supported and confident in their abilities as they learn new skills!

An area rug will not only make the room more inviting, but also will give kids a safe space to sit and move around outside of their chairs. The sensory bin materials will allow students to regulate their bodies while working on fine motor and visual motor skills. The tactile discs will be used on the floor and on lap trays to provide sensory input to our students who are ambulatory and in wheelchairs. These items will enrich the educational environments of many deserving student and we appreciate your help!
