As you can see in the picture, I have a timer and allow them 20-30 minutes to use the area as needed. As time goes on, I plan to make a wall mural of all the colorings. I am also trying to figure out how to create a cozy, safe space for the students, but space is our limitation. This will take some time, but for now our SEL items are a great start to my vision. \r\n We all thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!","fullyFundedDate":1755309927359,"projectUrl":"project/social-emotional-area-for-nurses-office/9428610/","projectTitle":"Social Emotional Area for Nurse's Office","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Monical","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10062050"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_79086","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1517,"numTeachers":102,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":16,"percentBlack":39,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"14.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":52.3,"schoolId":79086,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Omaha Northwest High Magnet School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Omaha Northwest High Magnet School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nebraska/omaha-public-schools/northwest-high-school/79086"}
