My Project

Making is crucial and it thanks to you that we can give this gift to our students.

One of the most joyful experiences is creating!

We are taking careful time teaching interpersonal skills. We do this with games, modeling, and guiding speech. Giving students time to play support their resilience, empathy, and kindness. Arts and crafts support students need to create and play.

Skills that require creation are not always present in traditional subjects. Students shine when we create lessons and units based on their interests and skills. Students understand that the future is technology and robots are a part of everyone’s future. Your donation will help students soar with creations and exploration. Materials purchased will especially support students who may or may not have such supplies at home. Giving students a chance to create and code robots are giving students a chance to become great.

An electronic drum set is perfect for our school library. Students love making beats and I love curating a place that gives students the opportunity of love of music and creation.

Representation matters! We know the importance of hair for many in our community! We are requesting wigs to help students explore hairstyles. When we get the wigs, we will welcome family and hair stylists in here to show students how to use their creativity with hair!

Through your support students can find joy at school. Your donation goes a long way to keep them smiling and happy. Let's make art and have fun in libraries at their school!
