This teacher needs your help!

Ms. Mckay from Greensboro, NC is requesting materials related to food, clothing & hygiene through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Adapting to the World Around US

Help me give my students a chance to learn with materials that are safe and appropriate. I am an Adaptive Curriculum teacher at PAGE High School. My students range in age from 14 to 22.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Mckay's classroom raised $738

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goals for this project are to expose my students to as much as possible before they end their academic career. Materials are expensive and hard to obtain on a teacher's salary. Many of my students come from low-income homes and do not have much exposure to many things. It is my wish to joyfully teach students with disabilities that anything is possible if you try and believe.

What makes my students special is that they show up daily and give it their all!

Every day may not be easy, but all the struggles are worth it. Every item requested will fulfill a student need. It will relieve stress of parents trying to provide items they cannot afford.

Ms. Mckay Page High School Grades 9-12
