FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sweeney's classroom raised $197

My Project

Our school is opening a second Autistic Support classroom next year for students in 3rd through 5th grade. We opened our first Autistic Support class this year and learned how important social emotional learning activities are to improve academic performance, improve peer and adult relationships and improve the overall well-being of students.

We are super excited to open our second Autistic Support classroom and want to make sure our students have everything they need to be successful.

We have ordered furniture and other essentials for the class but want to make sure all the needs of our students are met.

We want to provide items for our calm down corner like sensory and anger managment toys, games for making good choices, and other sensory learning items.
