My Project

Building a cool-down corner in my counseling office for our students who struggle with emotion regulation and anger management is key to the work that I do, and I know this donation will go a long way to service students in need!

My students are exceptionally talented, creative, kind and loving!

Their learning exceptionalities make them some of the hardest workers I’ve ever seen, and I can’t wait to see what they’ll accomplish this year! I am asking for some games so they can build their sense of community and co-operation. The toys and calm stirps will help create a cool down atmosphere.

As a school counselor, my responsibility is to our students’ mental and emotional health as well as helping them build coping and social skills needed to navigate the world, they live in.
