My Project

We are a Title 1 School in Connecticut with 500 students. Our amazing learners are working hard to continually manage their emotions to accelerate their learning. 20% of our student body currently is engaged in social and emotional support as part of their school day. We are looking to transform an old office into an amazing sensory experience to teach students how to best manage their emotions and realize how their actions impact others.

All of the items purchased will be used by our student to help them regain control when they become frustrated so they can quickly return to their learning.
