My Project

Sometimes, the day-to-day grind of middle and high school gets overwhelming, and we have to find a quiet place that is comfortable and safe. We are looking to create a new calm corner for all to enjoy when we need to disconnect from others and reconnect with ourselves.

We are looking to create an inspiring, calm corner with comfortable chairs and a couch to sit and relax for a moment.

The room will have snacks, plants, books, and inspirational sayings to keep students motivated. This is not always possible in every classroom, so we are to create a dedicated room where this may be available.
