My Project

My students are in a special education classroom. We are a low-income school with students who have high needs.

This flex seating will help my students focus better and self-regulate.

These students deserve so much but have so little. Please help us help them thrive.

I am also requesting a laptop cart. Much of what we do is via electronics. Many of my students are pre-verbal or nonverbal and we have a lot of devices to charge daily. This will help our students be more successful in their academics.
