My Project

I love my students’ resilience, creativity, and determination to keep trying, even when learning and emotions feel challenging. Many of my students need support with regulation before they can fully engage in academics. Flexible seating will give them choice and help them stay focused and comfortable. Noise-canceling headphones will support students who become overwhelmed by sound and need a calm space to work. Storage will create a structured, predictable environment that promotes independence. Cleaning supplies will help maintain a safe and welcoming classroom. These resources will support my students in feeling calm, confident, and ready to learn each day.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
