Sensory Friendly Library and Kindergarten Way Mural

This grant funds a sensory friendly space in the library for students with sensory needs from five self-contained special education classes at MAS. The space will be outfitted with an LED wall bubble panel, a sound machine, weighted blankets, noise reducing earmuffs, sensory items, gel tiles and dimmer switches, creating a sense of calm in a currently unused alcove area. In addition, this grant will fund a “enter the world of reading” mural, create a welcoming entry space to the library for all kindergarten classes that walk through “kindergarten way.”

Grantees: Bryan McClellan, Maria Albano
