My Project

In advisory we use the time to connect with students we teach in academic content on a more personal level. We foster community and try to be their "parent" in school, especially for our students in temporary housing and/or those who need assistance. I like to have sensory tools and food for our students who are not able to bring things from home or pick up something on their way from the store to avoid going hungry all day, especially our teenagers who participate in after school activities and sports.

This will support their mental health and their emotional endurance throughout the day.
