The new fan has been a lifesaver during warm afternoons, helping keep our students comfortable and focused instead of distracted by the heat.\r\nOur new vacuum cleaner and mop have also made a big difference in maintaining a safe space for exploration and sensory play. With so many tactile materials and sensory bins in use each day, spills and messes pile up quickly. With the new cleaning equipment students can help with cleanup using tools that are easy to manage and designed for our classroom's needs. The magnetic hooks have turned our learning space into a place where everything has a clear home. Students can independently locate materials and move safely through the classroom. \r\nOur next steps are to continue fostering independence through these new routines. Students are learning to take more responsibility for caring for their environment—sweeping, mopping, organizing, and helping each other maintain a calm, clean, and comfortable space where everyone can thrive.\r\nThank you for supporting our students in creating a learning environment that promotes confidence, accessibility, and pride.
