My Project

By donating to our School Counseling Project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement, Social Emotional skills, cultural awareness and career goals.

The block people, sensory ball set and other SEL items will enhance with self esteem, diversity, cultural awareness, and self identity because we now live in a global society.

Students will also learn how to build healthy relationships with their peers. Students learn how their behaviors and actions impact the people and social climate around them. Our children will be grateful and excited to learn more about our world.
