Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am a school counselor and I work with a variety of students on a day to day basis. I am often working with students who are struggling in one way or another. Whether that may be having a difficult time because they don't have access to basic needs at home, or struggling with regulating emotions, I am there go to person! I often need access to calm down tools, books and activities to teach students regulation skills!

I really want to be able to help my students learn skills to help them when they are struggling, so they feel confident!
