My Students
My students are some of the hardest-working students in the city! They are excited to come to school and love making new friends along the way. They are a small class of students in a great neighborhood school!
My students have a variety of unique learning needs and require small group settings and real-life learning experiences.
They enjoy taking on leadership roles and enjoy supporting their school in any way they can.
They are kind and compassionate and have a wonderful sense of humor!
My Project
Although my students are working hard throughout the day during their academic classes, we noticed they require more social and emotional skill development.
This project idea stems from wanting to provide our students with a learning experience that will enable them to learn a range of social and emotional skills as well as apply what they are learning academically!
We want to engage them in creative, meaningful endeavors that unite them with the school and their peers on a regular basis. The idea of having our students run a small school store was ignited by our passion to give them this type of learning environment!
For some students, a school-based organization can provide their first work experience as well as opportunities to learn key career and social skills. This store will empower our students to learn and connect classroom, school community, and career-related skills.
They have already surveyed the school on the snacks they prefer and have individually applied for a store position! Now all we need are the snacks like Nutella & Go, Rice Krispies Treats and Cheddar Cheese Pretzels! Thank you in advance for your support!! And, if you're in the area, stop in at The Snack Shack!
Thank you in advance to all the donors who have supported this project!
