Having a tranquil fish tank provides a space for students to retreat to when they're not having the best day. Most importantly, it keeps students in the room while decompressing as opposed to sending them to detention, the office, or another classroom. There will be plenty of workspace at the same station, so students are still able to be engaged and not miss assignments. By donating to our Tranquil Waters project, you will empower students to positively shift their mindset when their mood swings or when life throws curveballs. Unfortunately, my students come from many disadvantaged backgrounds that have a constant need for de-escalating situations. Additionally, caring for the fish and the upkeep of the tank builds responsibility to the very tool that offers them solace.
