As a special education teacher, Ms. Stroud aims to create a culture of inclusion at her school by seamlessly integrating her students with their non-disabled peers. Using the Teacher Grant for Innovation, Ms. Stroud will create a functional leisure area where students of all abilities can interact and participate in various activities, including games, art projects, bracelet-making kits, and more. The goal is for the space to help special education and general student populations develop meaningful relationships and thereby remove the stigma around students with disabilities.
