My Project

What I Love About My Exceptional Students

Every day, I have the honor of working with some of the most inspiring, resilient, and exceptional students you could ever meet.

My students are curious, determined, and full of potential. They may face unique challenges, but they show up with courage, creativity, and a desire to grow—and that’s what makes them so special.

Why I Love Being a Special Education Teacher

Being a special education teacher isn’t just a job—it’s a calling. I love creating a safe and supportive space where every student is seen, heard, and celebrated for who they are. Watching them grow in confidence, master new skills, and reach milestones big and small brings me more joy than words can express. It’s in the small victories—the proud smiles, the “I got it!” moments—that I’m reminded why I chose this path.

Why Your Support Matters

The right tools and environment make all the difference. With your support, I can provide the flexible seating, adaptive materials, and engaging resources my students need to stay focused, feel comfortable, and succeed academically. These supplies help me meet each child where they are and give them the best chance to thrive.

Your generosity helps me give my students more than just a classroom—it gives them a place to grow into the amazing leaders I know they can be.

Thank you for believing in them and in the power of education.
