Help me give my students with Autism a unique sensory space to address their mental wellness!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bunbury's classroom raised $490
This project is fully funded
My Project
I am a special education teacher for six students with severe disabilities. All of my students have Autism, and most are nonverbal and require alternate methods of communication. The school day can be very difficult for my students mental health.
Please help provide our classroom with furniture, bulletin board updates, and sensory toys so that we need to build a comfortable sensory space for students to take a mental wellness break!
Items we are requesting include comfortable furniture, bulletin borders for our "calm corner", and sensory toys! These items would support our students emotional and mental health by giving them a calm space for them to rest and meet their mental and sensory needs.
More than three‑quarters of 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
