My Project

My students cherish the freedom of outdoor play, especially the exhilarating experience of scooting. With your generous support, I aim to provide scooters to enrich their learning journey and offer essential play, leisure, and physical development opportunities vital for students who lack access to such experiences. Your contributions will make a profound difference in the lives of these special students, fostering their holistic development and joy in learning.

Moreover, scooting symbolizes a rite of passage, instilling positivity and a sense of ownership in every child, ensuring they embrace their right to joyful exploration.

Please help me give my students reliable, sturdy, and safe transportation to navigate and experience the outdoors.

Hugs, Ms. S.

Ms. Steph
Grades 3-5
