Please help me give my students a classroom rug for morning meetings and community circles. Books are essential for students' academic and emotional growth.

My Project
A classroom needs a community area. Where students can build relationships with one another and learn SEL skills, this thoughtfully designed classroom environment will serve as a safe space where students can feel welcomed and share their feelings.
My aim in creating this serene area is to ensure that students have a safe refuge where they can pause, reflect, and regain their composure from the pressures of academic or home life.
This will ultimately foster a more conducive learning environment.
Overall, having classroom essentials is important for students' success, such as a classroom rug, books that reflect them, and games to build classroom community.
More than half of 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
