My Project

The students in our school can benefit from learning concrete strategies for managing anxiety. I have requested optional seating, as well as fidget so students can understand what helps their own stressors.

Many of our students are dealing with the loss of a parent to substance-abuse, and the beanbag chair can offer a sense of comfort and grounding for these students.

The students in our school are aware of their anxiety and are eager to strategies for managing this. These items can assist and creating an environment that is both safe, secure, and enriching.
