Help me give my students a way to regulate themselves by providing tactile input with fidget toys and preventing sensory overload with noise-canceling headphones.

My Project
Many of our students with autism have difficulty with self-regulation. Situations that cause stress, anxiety and frustration can be difficult for them to navigate due to their differences in sensory processing, communication and social interactions.
The fidget toys and noise-canceling headphones will benefit all of our students with special needs to help regulate their bodies and minds when experiencing emotions that are difficult for them to express.
Fidget toys can have added benefits like improved concentration and sensory processing. The noise cancelling headphones will help them cope with sound sensitivity and sensory overload.
More than half 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
