My Project

The students at Grant are a joyful, enthusiastic crew, as are the special education teachers, paraprofessionals, counselors and social workers that support them. Our students have a variety of needs, and every adult in the school does their best to meet those needs.

Some kids need movement breaks to help them regulate their bodies, some need to talk to a trusted adult to help them regulate their emotions, and some need help with hygiene.

In order for us to effectively communicate with each other and get to where we are needed, we need reliable walkie talkies.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
