Sensory and Learning Tools for Special Needs Success
Help me give my students the educational materials and sensory supplies they need to flourish in our self-contained classroom.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Veras's classroom raised $952

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
In our self-contained classroom, my students, ages 9-13, many of whom are on the autism spectrum, face unique learning challenges. They thrive with hands-on materials, sensory supports, and curriculum tailored to their individual needs. This project aims to equip our classroom with specialized curriculum resources and sensory tools to create an inclusive, engaging, and supportive learning environment for all.
With your help, we can provide educational materials that make complex subjects accessible and sensory supplies that support emotional and behavioral regulation.
This project will empower my students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
Nearly all 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
