Support her classroom with a gift that fosters learning.

Support Ms. Palmisano's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
My classroom is a self-contained Special Education class in a Title I (high poverty) school. The ten children, age 7-13, in my classroom have disabilities that prevent them from participating and learning effectively in a regular inclusion classroom. Nevertheless, we are motivated and we overcome our obstacles!
Being a self-contained special education classroom, our kids represent a wide range of ages, abilities, grades and intellectual levels. My kids also have a variety of disabilities of varying levels of severity, but their disabilities do not define them. We seek to instill in our special education students an ethic of hard work and a pride in self.
Each of these dear children matter. Each of them is important to their families, their teachers, their school, and their community. I hope that they might also be important to the generous people here at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½.org!
