My Project

Our students need visual aids and materials to help aid in their learning and be creative. We are always doing art projects to enhance creativity and help develop fine and gross motor skills.

We are constantly printing graphic organizers, exemplar pieces, and other references to help our kids learn across all subject areas.

In such a diverse classroom community, we are constantly modifying lessons to ensure all our students can achieve maximum success!

My students need access to ink for our printer so visuals can be modified in color to better assist learning! By donating to this project, you will be helping us reach their potential and feel success both in and out of the classroom!
