My Project

I absolutely love my time with my students and they love their time with me! We always have such a great time discussing life, teenage experiences, and effective ideas to assist them throughout the journey of High School! During Social Emotional Learning, we dive deep into self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-love!

My girls are empowered by the environment we create so my desire is to create an even safer space for them to freely chat and engage with their peers with the bean bags and high-top table and chairs.

The bean bags and high-top table will give them a place to relax and enjoy this important time of day and the markers will give them a way to jot down their thoughts!
