Calming Area

Funded Feb 6, 2023

I would first of all, I would like to thank you so much on behalf of our school community and students! Students of all grade levels enjoy the plushies, social emotional learning games, books, and sensory toys. Your donation has helped show our students that there is value and importance on mental health. Students of all grade levels have used our school calming corner as a safe and soothing place to take moment to relax and refocus before transitioning back to activities.

When students first saw the calming corner they asked of they could lay down and hug the plushies. Students knew this was a special place that was thoughtfully curated for them. It fills my heart to see a student lay on the rug, hug a plushie, and read a book and share they feel relaxed. Without your donation, this would have not been possible.

Next steps for this project is to continue to make it accessible to all students in our school community and to build further for next year by adding more pillows and books on social emotional topics. Once again, thank you for your donation. Your donation was crucial in making our school a safe and welcoming space.”
