A 2024 Grant for Leslie Fox Keyser Elementary School

This grant will revitalize the current sensory room at Leslie Fox Keyser Elementary School. Sensory rooms in schools provide a controlled environment that offers various sensory experiences and tools to help students manage sensory overload, focus better and self-regulate their emotions. They can be particularly beneficial for improving concentration, reducing anxiety and supporting overall wellbeing, which can enhance learning and behavior in the classroom. Sensory rooms provide an essential support system for students who face challenges with sensory processing, including those with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD and other related conditions. The funds will go toward purchasing new equipment, sensory activities and placing a sensory path in the hallway.
