Calm Room for Bronx HS Students

Help me give my students a calm space. We are a small school in the Bronx with limited space. I am transforming an unfinished room to a space where students can practice mediation and other calming techniques.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am working to transform an unfinished janitorial space to a calm room for high school students.

We will paint the room a calming neutral tone, add interlocking tiles and furnish with bean bags.

The faux plants with aroma therapy will contribute to the calming vibe.

We are a small school in the Bronx with limited space. Many of our students live doubled up with other family members due to housing instability. My goal is to provide them with a calm and serene space where they can practice mindfulness and enjoy peace.
