My Project

These products will enhance student wellness while enriching their academic and social classroom experience. My classroom is a place where students know they are loved and cared for. Sometimes that can be a bit costly yet every student should be able to care for themselves despite the expense. All of the items chosen have been done with my students in mind, as I have observed a real financial need and am unable to fulfill it solely.

Studies show that when students feel good about themselves they are more focused in the classroom and more likely to learn.

The best way to increase a students confidence is to make them feel good about themselves. Personal care is a top priority and one that is often overlooked due to cost.
