New School Year- Counseling!

Help me give my students a creative and safe space for a better learning environment!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Blessington's classroom raised $797

My Project

In my school counseling office, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space for students who need a little extra support. To help provide comfort and relaxation for these students, I am requesting donations for comfortable floor seating, calming puzzles, giant game boards, weighted stuffed animals, and stress-relief toys like fidgets. These items will give students a much-needed break, helping them reset and re-engage in their learning with a clearer mind and a positive attitude. Your support will make a meaningful difference in their emotional well-being and success! I appreciate any and all help towards this project. Thank you all so much!
