My Project

The end of the school year can be a stressful time for both educators and students. To help alleviate this fatigue and promote well-being, we are proposing a grant to provide stress balls, snacks, and fun activities for my math classroom.

The objective of this grant is to support the mental health and well-being of students and educators by offering stress relief tools, snacks, and engaging activities during the demanding end of the school year period.

Many of my students, and all of my coworkers, are struggling to get to the end of the school year. The last 5 weeks are no less important than the first, but so many are ready to just give up. These supplies will help make the last few weeks go more smoothly.

By providing stress balls, snacks, and fun activities, we aim to create a supportive environment that prioritizes the mental health and well-being of our school community during a challenging time. This grant will not only offer immediate relief but also promote a culture of care and mindfulness within our educational setting.
