My Project
I love my students, I am a proud special educator! I strive for them to become independent and active citizens in our community.
I serve students who come from low-income areas and have many struggles to overcome.
I have been teaching children with developmental disabilities for almost 20 years. After covid, our school had a terrible flood and all my materials were destroyed. This project will help me set up a functional classroom for my non-verbal students. This will provide them with structure, foster growth, and encourage communication.
My students will use the furniture for independent workstations in a structured teaching classroom. They will use all materials every day and it will contribute to the learning routine!
More than half of 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
