My Project

My students are so incredibly special. Each and every one of them are unique in their own way. There are so many amazing projects the kids have created and would love to do. With your help it will make many dreams come true.

We love to create and share our art work for special projects at our school.

The paint and art supplies that my students use helps them express themselves with many different feelings that they experience everyday. My students will benefit while they focus on making other people happy.

One of the most important things for my students are using many different mediums and textures so the students can express themselves. Our goal is to fulfill a be kind project by painting rocks with special messages and hiding the rocks around our school. Other students will find the rocks with the special messages on them during our be kind week.
