The journaling dice have been a hit—they add a sense of creativity and structure to our mindfulness activities, sparking thoughtful reflection and even a few smiles along the way. The cozy animal figures and small calming items serve as simple yet powerful reminders that we're never too old to need comfort.\r\n\r\nThese tools are doing more than helping students focus—they're helping them build resilience and finish the year with confidence. It's incredible to watch them engage more openly in discussions about mental wellness and learn strategies they can carry with them beyond the classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the importance of social-emotional learning and for being part of our journey. Your support came at just the right time, and we're truly grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1745361907505,"projectUrl":"project/mindfulness-as-the-year-comes-to-a-close/9265158/","projectTitle":"Mindfulness as the Year Comes to a Close","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Freiri-Foley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8574773_orig.png?crop=1121,1121,x57,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727883957327","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8574773"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_110754","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":361,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":46,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":13,"percentWhite":22,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":45,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":14,"gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":90.3,"schoolId":110754,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Contra Costa School of Performing Arts on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Contra Costa School of Performing Arts","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/contra-costa-county-office-of-education/contra-costa-school-of-performing-arts/110754"}
