✨ With the 2024-25 Express Grant application open, we're excited to share more about past Express Grants In Action! "SEL Robots," a grant submitted by and awarded to Kennedy Junior High teacher Tobey Sanford funded the purchase of interactive robots to help students manage stress in a positive way. "[Students] really feel as if they are having a special experience getting to hold these unique robots," Sanford said. "We don't often encourage hugs at school, but students smile as they hug and hold the animal-like Qoobos. Students verbally express their gratitude for the SEL Robot opportunity nearly every time they check one out in the Learning Commons." 🔗 Learn more about last year's Express Grants: https://lnkd.in/g5amBnTm.
