Mental Health Matters

Help me give my students the safety and comfort of being a high school teenager. I pride myself on a positive learning environment, so I want students to feel safe.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pilla's classroom raised $613

This project is fully funded

My Project

Everything in this are things that can allow my students to be the best they can be. They are teenagers and as we know, that can be the hardest times of their lives. Having a classroom where they can take a break from the real world and just relax, color, and snack will make them feel happy and safe. Social emotional learning is huge at this time in their lives and they need as much as they can get from the people who have gone through those times already.
