My Project
Help give our new Autistic Support classroom books to help them with their communication skills. We are hoping to get some sign language beginner books and social stories books. We have a wide range of communication skills in the classroom and want to make sure we are helping all students improve their communication.
Some of our students are non-verbal so we want to incorporate sign language into the classroom to assist students with their communication skills.
We are also looking for a few social stories to help students learn how to treat each other in classroom and the community.
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
