My Project

My students are so special and they are constantly working on a daily basis on many different things to ensure their success in the future.

My students are working towards many goals and with that they have a lot of supplies that they need to keep up with and they currently no way to keep all of these important things organized.

With this new system, they will each have their own set of trays with all of the important things they need to be able to keep up with and locate at any given time.

My students all have a disability that makes navigating this world a little more challenging. My goal for this project is to have a new system so that they can gain more responsibility and work on this that they may encounter after they graduate. They each have individual goals that require an assortment of supplies but that different with every student. This will allow them to have their own area for their own supplies.

My students are so special. They are part of our beautiful and wonderful special needs community and they are all learning how to be successful in many different ways. This will most certainly aid in their success.
