My Project

I want to expose our students to alternative pathways post-high school. Our special needs students need independent work skills to provide them an opportunity to financially survive in our current climate. Unfortunately our school district cannot afford to provide this service.

Through positive relationships with local barbers, they are willing to provide barber workshops to our special needs students if we have some of the basic tools such as hair clippers and hair trimmers to get the students started.

The goal is for our students to have something positive to look forward to and be productive in society. Thank you!
