My Students

My counseling students need the tools to engage in the hard and vulnerable work of exploring what makes them happy, what troubles them most, and how to tap into their strongest selves. This project includes basic materials and office supplies for me to run a smooth practice and reach my students where they are.

At EVCS, our goal is for our students to be confident, kind, and ready to contribute towards positive social change in the community and world around them.

My Project

The supplies included in this project are all for use in my small counseling office. Each year I add to the materials for me and my students to work with.

The books included in this project will help my students connect to and process their emotional lives at school.

The Legos keep students little hands busy while they share their difficult feelings and thoughts. The Magnetic calendar will help keep students grounded in the structure of school. The floor seats will help them be physically comfortable in our small space. And the office supplies will help me keep all of our work organized!
