My Project

I need your help so my students will continue to progress. Your donation will directly impact my 5th through 8th-grade special education students by providing essential sensory items and positive reinforcement tools for the summer school program.

These resources will create a nurturing environment that fosters their learning and development.

Sensory items such as fidget toys, will help regulate their sensory needs, enabling them to focus better in class and engage more effectively with learning activities. Additionally, positive reinforcement items like reward charts, snacks, and verbal praise will encourage their progress and boost their self-esteem.

By providing the basic school supplies, all the students will have access to notebooks, markers, and pencils, ensuring they have the tools to be successful.

By providing these students with the tools they need, you'll be making a significant difference in their educational journey. Your generosity will enhance their academic experience and contribute to their overall well-being and social-emotional development. Together, we can create an inclusive and supportive environment where every student has the opportunity to thrive.
