My Project

The end of the school year is fast approaching, and these kids have worked very hard and have made incredible progress! They come to school every day ready to work and learn. They always greet me with a smile, a sweet picture or note and always a hug!

I am so proud of them and want to do something extra special, something they have never had the privilege of enjoying-A GLOW PARTY!!

We did this last year and it was a huge success and since I have siblings of students they are asking for it this year.

For some kids the end of school is a stressful time. They may not have access to three meals a day and maybe stuck in a hotel room all day. Many have a hard time transitioning therefore I try to make the last 10 days of school super fun and special. We pop a balloon each of those mornings and inside is a note as to what special event will happen that day. It might be extra recess, paper airplane day or write with a pen day. This year I want to once again add a Glow Party. We will have balloons, decorations and glow sticks using the black lights to make them “glow in the dark”. We will have music and dancing with only the glow from the sticks and decorations. I hope you can help with this event and make this dream come true!
