Mrs. Sargent from Buffalo NY is requesting materials related to food, clothing & hygiene through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Smells Like Teen Learning!

Help me give my students aromatherapy diffusers in classrooms to aid in the day to day learning environment, improve mood, create a calming environment, and promote brain function of our scholars.

My Project

Our brains prioritize survival above learning. Now more than ever students are anxious and stressed and conflicts tend to arise. Students need a calming environment to refocus. I am requesting funds to purchase 5 aromatherapy diffusers and quality essential oils. Research has shown specific essential oils (Eucalyptus, Peppermint) can increase the attention of students as well as calm behaviors (Lemongrass, Lavender).

It is a safe and easy method to aid in student success.

These kits will be placed in strategic locations for our students in need of Tier 2 and Tier 3 behavior interventions.
