My Project

Please help our Special Education class with the learning materials and supplies they need to practice the skills for real world success! The art supplies will be of great value for the students to be able to practice fine motor skills and be able to express themselves emotionally in a healthy and positive way. The cooking mixer will allow the students to create many kinds of foods for meals and desserts for themselves and their friends and families at home.

The Special Education students will be able to practice with the materials and supplies to allow them success in the real world.

These students need experience with positive self expression and cooking skills for life as they move toward graduation and living on their own. We appreciate your help and support!
