My Project

At the high school where I work, we set aside 30 minutes per week to help students build positive relationships with faculty and with each other. Board games can be a useful tool to help students relax and connect with each other.

A group that laughs together stays together!

Relationships are built on shared experiences; games of all sorts are a useful tool to help students connect with their peers and the adults at the school. These games will help my faculty and staff provide those opportunities for the students in the building.

Thank you for donating to our school; your generosity is greatly appreciated.

Ms. Grenon South High Community School Grades 9-12
