My Project

Working with students in the special education program has its own challenges. But by donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic and social achievement to help prepare them for the future.

Each requested item in our list are used to help motivate each student to learn a new skill, help make more teaching materials and help keep our students feel safe and included.

Any gratitude is greatly appreciated. Our whole class will never forget your support and kindness.

Thank you.

Ms. Rachel Ruffner Elementary School Grades 3-5
