"On Monday we get to play a few instruments and get to do songs, we get to play games, it's really fun," said Christopher.

"I was thinking that maybe the school would buy supplies for them," said Christopher.

When she was crowned Tiny Miss Keller in a pageant, her number one goal was to help raise money for teachers to buy supplies. 

"She jumps and does things on her own without asking, she would help other students and doing something like this shows the wonderful student she is," said Joi Lyn Abell, one of Christopher's teachers.
