These new resources have captured their curiosity and students are excited to start our math session, eager to collaborate, and proud of their problem-solving. \r\n\r\nMost importantly, I see them growing in their love for learning. They are building confidence, taking risks, and celebrating their successes.

Because of your donation, our students with social skills deficits now have access to a variety of tools—including therapy games, sensory putty, fidgets, and social-emotional books—that have transformed the way we approach emotional regulation and coping skills. These materials have enabled me to deliver more engaging, hands-on, and effective counseling sessions that meet the unique needs of each child. Students are learning to recognize their emotions, express themselves appropriately, and practice strategies that help them manage stress, anxiety, and frustration in healthier ways.\r\n\r\nIn addition to our small group and individual sessions, the social-emotional books have become a wonderful resource for read-alouds shared with the entire school community. These stories have sparked meaningful conversations among students and staff, building a stronger culture of empathy and emotional awareness across our campus. Your support has made a lasting impact, not just in the counseling office, but throughout the school.

Students are more engaged and better able to understand and apply the skills we practice together.\r\n\r\nOne of the most impactful additions has been the supplies for students to create their own sensory bottles. Not only do these hands-on projects support emotional regulation in our sessions, but they also provide students with a calming tool they can take home—extending the benefits of counseling beyond the school walls. Our social-emotional books have also been shared through read-alouds with the entire school community, sparking important conversations and helping to build a culture of empathy and understanding.
