My Project

Our middle school is in need of fidgets to help support student focus in the classroom. These supplies will be distributed to classrooms in need to service various students.

Help students improve focus and productivity in the classroom!

These items will be used in several classrooms to help students quietly burn their extra energy and keep them focused in class. These tools are extremely important in student success. Our school wants multiple types of fidgets to help our diverse school of learners.

We are so grateful to all that have helped our school so far, you truly make dreams come true!

Grades 6-8
