This project expired on May 11, 2024.

Las Vegas, NV Grades 9-12

My Project

My classroom is working towards the independence, safety, and security of students who have multiple disabilities. My post program students make everyday a different experience for the staff that works with them because we never know what to expect next from them.

We want our students to be comfortable and feel like they can be themselves.

We work towards independence as they approach the end of their educational experiences and we want every day to be better than the last one! Since many are unable to talk to us we want to praise them with rewards, and what better way than through snacks!
