My Project
Many of my students this year are autistic and nonverbal. Autistic children have difficulties developing speech and language, which makes communicating their needs and ideas very difficult. This can lead to frustration and behavior challenges. My students have ideas and opinions that they want to share with others, but because they can't talk, their voices can't be heard.
With the assistance of a communication/speech device, students are able to express their thoughts, needs, and communicate with peers and teachers.
Their voices will be heard! This assistive speech device is the only tool my students can have to communicate with others and share their ideas with peers and adults. The tool will also encourage them to "talk" more and thus build their self-confidence.
Nearly all 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
