My Students

I have been at my job for over 20 years. I love my job and my students. We are able to really get to know our students and act as their counselors, job coach, and teacher. Each student brings something great to the classroom and our goal is to watch them make and keep their goals.

Our program offers personalized, small group classroom instruction for students transitioning from high school to the adult world.

Students with IEPs can have extra time (through the year they turn 21) to get support and services in learning how to be a successful adult.

This half-day program supports students in their transition from high school to the adult world.

Students receive small group and personalized classroom instruction in getting and keeping jobs, becoming more independent, learning about finances, connecting with community resources, finding post-secondary college/training and completing high school requirements.

My Project

We need these basic supplies …. Our students need books, pencils, and working calculators to help with learning. We need updated curriculum and teaching tools.

The right school supplies help to engage learners.

When kids don’t have a pencil and cannot participate, they may not just sit quietly. Often, they disrupt their neighbor’s work. For this reason, basic school supplies help the overall classroom atmosphere.

Please help me give our students the proper supplies they need to be successful.

I thank you very much for your consideration and supply donation
