Students are more engaged, respectful, and motivated, and they've taken real ownership of their actions. The calming corner has become a safe space where students can take a moment to regroup, while reward systems have boosted morale and encouraged consistent positive behavior. Most importantly, my students feel seen, heard, and supported.\r\n\r\nThis project has made a lasting difference in their day-to-day experiences and has helped lay the foundation for a safe and nurturing environment where learning can truly thrive.
