My Project

We are seeking essential resources—fidgets, snacks, a comfortable chair, and whiteboards—to enhance our students' mental health and academic success. Fidgets provide a quiet, effective way for students to manage their energy and anxiety, allowing them to stay focused during lessons. Healthy snacks ensure that all students remain energized and attentive throughout the day, reducing distractions caused by hunger.

A comfortable chair will establish a dedicated space for students to take calming breaks when they feel overwhelmed, promoting emotional well-being.

Additionally, whiteboards will encourage active participation and collaboration, making learning more interactive. These resources will help us create a supportive environment where every student can thrive, both mentally and academically.
