My Project

I am continuing to build a collection of therapeutic resources for our team of mental health workers to use with our special education students. We are always working hard to meet the needs of our students and find creative ways to engage them in learning about how to express themselves, navigate interpersonal relationships and prepare for life after high school.

Our entire school will utilize the resources in this project to engage during weekly group and individual sessions.

We are requesting fidgets, sensory items and more. These tools will help our mental health workers reach the students in new ways.

Ms. Camp
Grades 9-12
