My Project

Our school hosts an annual holiday store in December. Students get to "purchase" a gift for themselves or family members with points they earn for meeting their goals. Staff members work with students to identify goals early in the year. We have scheduled monthly progress checks to help students monitor their goals. Monitoring student goals and tracking progress have becoming vitally important after the pandemic.

Our students take great pride in achieving their personal goals.

Setting goals, monitoring progress, and feeling a remarkable sense of success are all crucial life skills for our students. Often, students feel successful and that leads to a greater effort in other areas as well. Students start to believe in their ability to do difficult things.

The requested art kits and supplies will be available for students to select in our holiday store. Arts and crafts are always popular with our students. With your help, we can give students a holiday gift and a sense of accomplishment.
