My Project

Help me curate an inviting classroom space. This project will provide me with materials to transform my learning space into one that is aesthetically calming and instructionally inspiring.

By providing materials to enhance our classroom aesthetics, we're not just beautifying the space; we're crafting an environment that speaks to the senses and cultivates a sense of calm and focus, recognizing the diverse needs of our students.

Through this project, we're not just transforming physical space; we're transforming the learning experience. When students feel invited, regulated, and inspired, they're more engaged and motivated to explore, discover, and grow. With your generous support, we can create a classroom environment that sets the stage for meaningful learning journeys and empowers every student to thrive.

  • Center I
  • Charlottesville, VA
