My Project

I teach students who receive special education services in grades 6-8. Many times, my students do not come to school with supplies or need extra tools to help them succeed. This could be snacks, sensory items, manipulatives, visuals, etc. These items are essential in helping students reach their fullest potential and make progress on individual goals. We are also looking for basic supplies to help students function within the classroom.

There is a minimal amount in the budget so much comes straight out of teacher pockets.

Please consider helping.
