My Project

The school library is a unique environment that welcomes everyone on a level playing field. We strive to provide something for everyone and diversify our activities to allow students of all abilities to be successful. Because of this, students who struggle with appropriate social interactions are encouraged to attend and participate in our classes.

My special students need to visit a space that makes them feel comfortable and cared for.

Giving them a comfortable environment to wear noise reducing headphones, and interact with anxiety reducing toys and games will give them the confidence to interact with other students in a successful way.
