These materials will help students want to come to school and also help them to control their emotions. Students and their families have experienced a great deal of stress during this Co-Vid time period. Students come to school with a great deal of Adverse Childhood Experiences. Schools are often one of the first places where mental health issues are recognized and addressed. Therefore we want to encourage students to come to school and encourage parents of the positive benefits of being in school everyday. Teachers are anxious to teach and see excitement on students' faces.
