My Project

This equipment cart for storage will allow our students to be able to walking and around the equipment rather than over it and through it in the storage closet. This project is in progress to make sure that the space provided stays neat and organized to ensure student safety and promote organizational skills. ALL of our students are special to us because they bring joy to everyday life. Building relationships with these kids and their families allows me to come to work every day without feeling that I am at a job. I like to participate with the kids and let them see it is okay to fail. I like to use those moments to teach building off of failure, not letting failure hinder my ability to move on.
