My Project

It is the start of the 2024-2025 school year and for many of my students this is their first time going to school. Going to school for the first time can be very exciting but can also make the students feel scared and anxious. Lucky for them, we have donors like you that can help make the start of the school career not only fun but also exciting.

With your help, we make our students excited about attending school for the first time!

All the items requested will help the students regulate their emotions and motivate them to share their feelings with their peers and teachers. You will see a lot of social emotional books, sensory toys and even snack on my wishlist because sometimes all we need is a good snack and someone to share our feelings with to turn our day around.

This year, I will be teaching my students with this Moto in mind, “Believe you can and you’re halfway there.” – Theodore Roosevelt.
