My Project

I am a first year special education teacher. I currently teach 120 high school age students and have 15 additional students on my caseload. In addition, more than half of my students are dual language learners and come from low income housing.

The Random Necessities project will help students that need extra motivation and incentives to complete a desired task.

Increasing the various resources that Quill can provide me will help me reach my students from a traditional learning format, have a clean work work environment with flu season on the rise and healthy snack to better feed the brain!
