We are a school with high trauma and the gift you all gave will serve those who need a safe place to go. What I do is so much more than just teaching. We often are the constant adult students have in their lives. We are often the one they come to when they are scared, tired, happy and needing comfort. They are so special to me. Attached are several of the thank you letters and pictures of what your resources went towards. We added many items to our calming room. This enables the students in our school to get reregulated when they get frustrated. \r\n\r\n I could never thank you enough.
