My Project
I teach a class of students with varying levels of disabilities, focusing on helping those who are developing skills for independent toileting and smooth transitions between activities. My goal is to create a supportive environment that encourages these students to thrive. In my class, we are dedicated to empowering students with disabilities by helping them achieve greater independence in areas like toileting and transitioning.
Additionally, I want to address the nutritional needs of students who come to school hungry, ensuring they start their day ready to learn.
I am developing an incentive program designed to motivate students who are progressing towards independence in essential skills while also ensuring that all students begin their day with a healthy breakfast.
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
