My Project

In the world of education, academic learning can only happen once our other needs are met (physical, mental, emotional).

We have lovely students who need a bit of extra support with basic mental health needs so that academic learning can happen.

The items you donate help students in our DCD and ASD programs who need accommodations to make tasks more manageable and calm (sensory, auditory, visual). Some need headphones to focus; others just need a fidget while they do their work to calm themselves.

We appreciate your help making our jobs easier and students' lives more calm and joyful!

Ms. Mary Washburn High School Grades 9-12
