Your support provided essential sensory tools such as fidgets, kick bands, noise-canceling headphones, stress balls, and therapy putty. These resources are already making a tangible difference in the lives of our students.\r\nMany of our learners face daily challenges with anxiety, sensory sensitivities, and emotional regulation. Whether it's the overwhelming noise of a busy classroom or the stress of academic and social pressures, students now have a supportive place to regroup and recharge. The tools you've helped provide offer students positive, non-disruptive ways to manage their stress and return to learning with a clearer mind and calmer heart.\r\nStudents are learning to ask for a fidgets, or headphones to help themselves. Your donation provides teachers with the tools they need when they need it without having to wait to order an item. The noise-canceling headphones have been particularly helpful for those who are easily overstimulated, allowing them to focus without distraction. \r\nHornet Haven is not just a space—it's a shift in our school culture. It's teaching our students that taking care of their mental and emotional well-being is a strength, not a weakness.\r\nThank you for believing in the importance of student wellness. Your support is empowering students to thrive both emotionally and academically. You've made a lasting impact, and we are deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1752506045631,"projectUrl":"project/hornet-haven-a-calming-space/9196405/","projectTitle":"Hornet Haven a Calming Space","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mueller","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4118840_orig.jpg?crop=564,564,x121,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1654264985206","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4118840"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1373","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":547,"numTeachers":47,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":36,"percentWhite":30,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":19,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":58.9,"schoolId":1373,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Howard Hall Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Howard Hall Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/cumberland-county-schools/howard-hall-elementary-school/1373"}
