I would like to create a wellness room and equip classes with wellness tools at our school. The pandemic has increased mental health concerns across the world. I was speaking with one of my students this morning and they shared that they slept 2 hours last night. For the past few years, the student has been dealing with personal problems and doesn't have stable housing. The student added how the pandemic added to her problems. The students are currently dealing with fear around the pandemic and coming to school has caused much anxiety. I would like to set up "Calming Corners" where students can sit on bean bags, have tools such as fidget toys, books that teaches them about feelings and give them coping mechanisms, and color by number posters that can help to reduces anxiety and stress. Thus, by creating a space within each classroom where students can decompress and focus on their wellbeing will be a huge asset for our students. Thus, I would like to request funding to help us reach our goal of equipping all of our classes and create a school that nurtures and fosters emotional wellness for all students.
