My Students
Our school is starting a Social Emotional Learning program that will help students with autism and social emotional needs learn proper social, coping, goal setting, and executive functioning skills.
We have unique students who will need love and support when going through the crazy transition of junior high!
Our students are fun, smart and caring individuals who want to succeed in school, but need extra supports to achieve that success in their general education classrooms. We are hoping our new SEL program will give them the tools they need!
My Project
Our students will use these tools to help replace unwanted behaviors in the classroom.
My goals is for them to use these seating options and fidgets for sensory input so they can focus on their academic tasks.
These tools will also be used to assist students with coping in new/uncomfortable situations.
Their "homebase" classroom will be a safe place for them to come to during the day where they can use these tools to reset and prepare for the rest of their day.
I want students to feel at home in this classroom and have tools available to them to help them be successful.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
