Help me give my students have a calm space to support their mental health.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rubio's classroom raised $916
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 social worker and my main goal is to empower students so that they learn the skills needed to self-regulate and cope with stressors.
My students are resilient, kindhearted and open to learning.
I am impressed daily by their willingness to discuss mental health and build positive connections.
By receiving the tools requested from this project, my students will have access to a Calming Area in my classroom where they can practice self-regulation by utilizing tools such as fidgets, SEL Books, sensory tools, art materials and more!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
