My Project

Help us create a more inclusive and supportive learning environment for our elementary school students by donating to our supply list for sensory supports and tools! Many children benefit from sensory-friendly resources that help them focus, regulate emotions, and engage fully in the classroom and with their academics. Your generosity will provide essential tools like fidget items, weighted blankets, noise-canceling headphones, safe opportunities for spinning and vibration movement, and more—helping every student thrive. Every contribution makes a difference, and we truly appreciate your support in making our classroom a welcoming space for all!

Ms. Kiser R Louis Stevenson Elementary School Grades PreK-2
