My Project

I have loved working with my 12th-grade advisory since they were freshmen. This year they are stressed out and worried about applying to college and trade schools. I want to support them to feel safe and supported and to ease their stress.

These games, craft items, fidget toys, and other supplies will help ensure my students can decompress with fun team-building initiatives that will help us build community and a sense of belonging.

Additionally having access to healthy snacks, needed hygiene and other supplies, and opportunities to be creative will serve their overall well-being. Thank you so much for your support!
