My Project

This year our students are helping to contribute to our class newsletters.

Your generosity will help us to create dynamic class newsletters.

Our students come in our room with all with different needs and interests; in addition to working on academics, we also work on life skills. Some of the things we have worked on is how to make hot beverages from a Keurig, combing and brushing their own hair, folding laundry, looking people in the eyes and saying, "Good morning," etc.

This class newsletter will enable them to interview people for our "Staff Spotlight" section. They will interview the educators and staff who are meaningful to them, write their short biographies, and we will publish it to the families in our classroom. The colored ink will help to make the newsletters more eye catching, the hole puncher will help us to organize, and of course chocolate always makes work a little bit sweeter! Thank you so much. I know that money is tight for everyone what with inflation and all, and I am so grateful to everyone out there.
