Students are also loving the coziness of the bean bag and the rug to help them feel secure and regroup when they fail. I can't wait to see how strong these students become just because they have a safe space to regroup and rethink before letting their actions get them in trouble.","fullyFundedDate":1755025884734,"projectUrl":"project/calming-corner/9541731/","projectTitle":"Calming Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cruz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5252245_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y504&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754420104541","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-amanda-cruz"},{"teacherId":9486041,"projectId":8255826,"letterContent":"Thank you sincerely for your generous sewing machine donation to Legacy Middle School's theater class.
