My Project

Students in our classroom have a vast spectrum of needs, from medical supports, to mobility and transportation needs, to learning and attention issues. Without a clear way to communicate around our school's campus, this can impact needs and we don't want staff to experience any delays in getting kids the highest standard of support.

Your donation gift will help our team to get fast, reliable help to all areas of our high school campus--helping all learners to navigate through their school day.

Movement of people and vital messaging can create an inclusive environment for all students; no matter how small the group or how urgent the need.

We are excited to partner with our donors so that we can have peace of mind that students across all physical areas are part of our network of support--which in turn will bring more inclusive practices to our entire school community.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
