My Project

I love how resilient, curious, and hardworking our students are. Every day, they walk into school carrying a mix of excitement, challenges, and big emotions that shape how they learn and interact with others.

Our wellness space offers them a supportive place to pause, breathe, and build the regulation skills they need to succeed both in and out of the classroom.

The hands-on materials will allow students to practice coping strategies in engaging, meaningful ways.

Sensory seating will give them comfort and stability to maintain focus, while manipulatives will provide calming, tactile options to reduce stress. Each resource will help students reset, regain confidence, and return to learning, ready to thrive.
