My Project

This project is focused on supporting students care needs.

It has become clear that middle schoolers have some specific needs to make sure the feel confident and comfortable throughout their school day.

They are often nervous to ask for these items!

This project will give us a cart to organize personal care and hygiene items for students to take when they need it. I find that middle schoolers are often embarrassed or afraid to ask for something they need and this cart will give them a space to grab something that could help them make it through their school day.

Ms. Caravella
Grades 6-8
