My Project

We have a wonderful school that provides many of the special education classes in our district. Our classroom has students in grades K-2 who require many adaptive and modified materials, additional assistance, and special care from adults who share their passion and patience to encourage our young students to learn and achieve! Our students are exceptional, surprising us daily with their eagerness to learn, communication efforts, determination, playfulness, and joy!

We need batteries to power multi-sensory learning materials and technology devices for our students with special needs, and heavy-duty task box bins for structured activities.

We are very grateful to DonorsChoose for providing a way to express our adaptive educational needs. Thank you for your generous support in helping our students to be successful!
