Mental Health Readiness

Help me give my students the tools they need to get through their door in a strong way. Mental health starts with having the right tools. Kids struggle to be successful mentally without the care they need.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hughes's classroom raised $500

My Project

Our K students need basic needs before they can learn. I am excited to provide these necessary items to help students be ready for school. Some students can't focus until they get to school so having these materials is imperative to their mental health. Providing fun coloring options for their creativity will help those who become disregulated during the day.

Please consider helping students focus by allowing them to express themselves through art and calmness.

Hygiene becomes an important part of the day as students begin at high school. Making friends start with taking care of yourself.
