My Project
In our adapted classroom, every day is a testament to resilience, creativity, and the unwavering spirit of our students. Despite facing physical and cognitive challenges, they approach learning with enthusiasm and a unique perspective that enriches our classroom community. To support their growth and foster a love for learning, we aim to provide them with new reading materials and hands-on manipulatives.
Traditional learning tools often fall short in meeting the diverse needs of our students.
By introducing tactile learning aids and engaging reading materials, we can enhance literacy skills, promote hands-on learning and foster independence.
With your support, our classroom will transform into a dynamic learning environment where every student has the resources they need to succeed. Your donation will not only provide materials but also inspire confidence and a love for learning in our students.
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
