I have the privilege of being a Speech Therapist in a South Bronx high school, which is part of District 75 in New York City’s Department of Education. We are the largest special needs school in NYC, with over 700 students. They range in age from 14 to 21 years old. My students face intellectual and physical disabilities that affect their ability to communicate and access the school’s curriculum. Some of my students verbally communicate, while others are not able to speak and use alternative methods of communication. Many of my students have physical disabilities that limit their ability to access educational and therapeutic materials.
Your donation will allow my students of varying needs to access instructional materials that will help them be successful.
My Project
We are still unsure if school will be in-person or remote in the fall.
Help me provide my students with access to instructional materials from the website Teachers pay Teachers.
With these gift cards, I will be able to purchase digital materials to help my students meet their speech and language goals.
By funding my project, you are providing my students with access to engaging materials. The gift cards will help me purchase materials that can be used both in the therapy room and virtually through teletherapy now and in the future.
