A sensory wall creates a supportive, inclusive environment that facilitates sensory development, enhances learning, and promotes emotional and physical well-being.
Who We Are
Empowering Special Needs Education Through Innovation
Sensory Wall emerged from a deep-seated passion to enhance the learning experiences of special needs students. The inspiration came during the planning of an Eagle Scout project, where we identified the significant challenges faced by special needs classrooms—limited resources, tight budgets, and the need for specialized support.
Sensory Wall was founded on the belief that every student deserves an inclusive and enriching educational environment. Our journey is centered around creating innovative solutions, like sensory walls, that transform classrooms into spaces where special needs students can thrive, explore, and grow.
Our Approach
Long-Term Goals
We aim to broaden our reach to include additional regional schools, installing at least 40-50 sensory walls over the next three years.
Expanding our initiative will give more students the tools they need to succeed, promoting widespread inclusion and educational support.
Forge Partnerships with Local Businesses and Organizations:
Establish partnerships with local businesses and organizations to sustain and grow our initiative. Strong partnerships will offer resources, expertise, and financial backing, ensuring the longevity and success of our project. These partnerships will also help us engage volunteers and collaborate with other youth-led NPOs to offer community service opportunities.
Develop a Sensory Wall App for Home Learning: Create an app that allows students to engage with sensory activities from home, complementing their classroom experiences. The app will provide interactive, personalized sensory experiences that support continued engagement and development outside of the classroom.
Our Mission
At Sensory Wall, we aim to design and provide accessible, engaging, and personalized sensory walls that empower special needs students to reach their full potential.
Our Vision
Collaborate with the city to install sensory walls in every Dublin Unified School District (DUSD) classroom. By partnering with the city, we can scale our efforts and ensure that every special needs classroom is equipped with the tools necessary for enhanced learning.
