My Students

Within the last five years, my school has developed a program for students with behavioral and emotional issues. We have five classrooms, each with a 6:1:2 ratio, ranging from grades one through twelve.

Many of the students that have come to this program were previously on home bound instruction.

Our goal is to provide them with the tools that are necessary to eventually be able to return to their regular school districts.

Our program has come a long way since it began in 2016, and we are excited to watch as it continues to grow!

My Project

LEGOS are an amazing tool for learning, as they help to maintain the focus and attention of the students. They are able to learn while having fun, and that helps them to maintain the information that they are learning. LEGOS would be very helpful in our classroom, as they provide endless possibilities to expand the mind of our learners! Any donation is greatly appreciated and we will be sure to pay it forward to other teachers and classrooms in need! We are asking for your help, as our school has limited funds for items such as LEGOS.
