This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My name is Mrs. Rothe and I teach elementary school students from grades K-6th with extensive special needs. I have 10 students with disabilities ranging from Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, and Intellectual Disabilities with a mix of verbal and non-verbal communication. Due to the nature of their disability, many of my students require adaptive equipment and access to sensory items to participate with their same-aged peers in daily school activities. Sensory items and activities will provide my students safe ways to promote self-regulation and coping strategies. An adaptive swing will give our students an opportunity to participate in recess in a way that they have not been able to before.
Thank you for helping make our school an inclusive environment!
More than three‑quarters of 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
