Expectations are meant to create a safe and positive environment for everyone.  Expectations in The Nest include:

Keep your phone off and in your backpack. The Nest is a device free zone.  It is a space to be free of distraction and sensory stimulation so that you can truly use the time to regroup and refocus.

Use positive and appropriate language. The Nest is a safe space for all students.  We ask that students not only use appropriate language, but to also refrain from speaking to or about others in a negative way.

Be mindful of your noise level. Many students come to The Nest seeking a calm and quiet space to release stress and overstimulation. 

Clean up after yourself. Please make an effort to put away any tools (fidgets, coloring, games) you use or put back any seating you moved so that The Nest is always ready to welcome others.

Use this time to relax, regroup, & revive. The purpose of The Nest is to allow students a safe space to regulate their thoughts, emotions, and energy.  Use your time here to find calm and focus.
