These resources have become an important part of our counseling program and are helping students build healthy coping skills.\r\n\r\nStudent reaction:\r\nWhen the students first saw the new materials, their faces lit up with excitement and curiosity. Many said things like, \"This makes me feel calm already!\" and \"Can I use one when I'm having a bad day?\" Their reactions showed just how meaningful it is to know that their school community—and our donors—care about their mental health and success.","fullyFundedDate":1755498826206,"projectUrl":"project/peace-offering/9472847/","projectTitle":"Peace Offering","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hill","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8829721_orig.jpg?crop=162,162,x0,y54&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752728089974","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8829721"},{"teacherId":9882275,"projectId":9018212,"letterContent":"We would like to express our thanks, as these fidgets, movement, seating, manipulatives, and other needed items, helped us learn and to stay focus on learning.

We were able to get some social skills activities to help with our social skills. The play-doh helped us in academic through manipulation.

The inclusion of hair ties and deodorant addresses essential needs that might otherwise go unmet, ensuring students can focus on their studies without feeling self-conscious.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, the Jolly Ranchers will serve as a wonderful incentive to encourage positive behavior and academic engagement.
