Through a grant from the Ray-Pec Public School Foundation, Kathleen Johnston and Kristy Warren purchased items for student sensory needs. The purchases included a Radioflyer "cyclone" that requires students to use their arms to propel the "bike" while seated; a resistance tunnel; and storage boxes for sensory items such as beans, water beads and sand.
