My Project

Our students are creative, intuitive, delightful human beings! They utilize our office space to take breaks, sit comfortably to work in a quiet space when needed, and have a place to go when needing social emotional support. The space outside our offices is currently non-descript and uninviting. It does not represent the offices that are beyond the waiting area. It is important that the outer office space feel just as welcoming as our individual offices are. By providing a warm, comfortable space, food to eat, and other essentials, students will be have their mental health supportive which will translate into increased success in school. We need fidget toys, posters, a floor lamp, rug, chips, granola bars, a love seat and arm chairs.
