Testing season can be stressful for scholars, but with the right tools, we can help reduce anxiety and provide a calm, supportive environment for them to thrive. My goal is to create a classroom where students feel confident and focused, with flexible seating, privacy options, and quiet activities to help them stay relaxed during and after testing.
These additions will transform our classroom into a calm and supportive testing environment, helping scholars feel at ease, stay focused, and build their confidence.
Flexible seating and privacy options will create personalized spaces, while quiet activities will provide a constructive outlet for their energy once testing is complete.
Your support will make a tremendous impact on my scholars, allowing them to reach their fullest potential during this critical time. Every donation brings us one step closer to creating this relaxed and inspiring environment!
Thank you for investing in our classroom and in the future of our scholars.
More than half of students from low‑income households
