My Students

Our school is home to four kindergarten classrooms, two 4K classrooms, and an early childhood class. We may not be your typical elementary school, but what we lack in size we make up for in drive and passion for our students!

We are a school that is dedicated to providing our students with all the tools and materials they need to be successful in their learning.

We are devoted to growing our student's academics, social-emotional learning, and love of learning.

My Project

These materials such as stress balls, motion and liquid timers will be used in a sensory room at our school that will help students maintain a calm body and work on regulation skills.

They will also be used during OT and PT therapy sessions.

These items will be very important for the effectiveness of these sessions.

This room is essential for many of our students. It gives them a quiet space and a location where they can regulate their body safely. This gives them the tools and knowledge to be able to then work on regulating their bodies in the classroom setting as well. This is very important for keeping all students safe and happy.
