PACE Fundraiser

Jill Wudarczyk and Rachel Altman of the Center for STEM Education at Northeaster University, in partnership with our own teacher Colleen Leary, are helping to raise much needed money for our PACE Program, the Curley’s own highly regarded Autism education strand program.

This program has enhanced the lives of many students at the Curley who are living with the everyday challenges of being autistic. However, because of a limited budget the teachers are restricted to just how much they can provide the students.  A Facebook page and Twitter account are up and running to gather support for this cause and to keep everyone updated once the actual details of the event come out.

Most importantly, there’s a Causevox site that accepts online donations. New technology, techniques, and tools are being created every day to help autistic students learn. We hope to provide some of the newest supplies available to give these students the best school experience they can have!

A total of $460 at the time of writing has been raised, but please help them reach their goal of $1,000. The link again is: http://curleypace.causevox.com/.
