Stress, anxiety, and the trauma of a pandemic are acute issues that are affecting our teachers and students as this new school year begins. Although the academic impact of these issues is hard to measure, we know that over-stressed and anxious minds are rarely primed to be ready to learn. These realities aren’t new for many of our students pressed by the chronic strain of poverty or other life events. For these students as well as others, creating a calming room in your school can help alleviate this stress. This is why we want to provide an emotional calming room.
