My Project

There is an amazing class at BMS! There are eight joyful 6th, 7th and 8th grade Autistic Support students ready and eager to learn! These awesome students enjoy attending school each day!

I would like to support my students by giving basics that they would need to learn, such as a pencil sharpener, laminating sheets and timers.

These are just basic school supplies, but my students would benefit from having these basics.

Please help our amazing classroom by making a donation to support our Autistic Support classroom.
