Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students are current 8th Grade Seniors at Community Voices Middle School. When thinking about the students that I teach, I cannot help but to think of everything that makes them special to me. Some of our students have defied the odds by overcoming obstacles. Others have set goals that they have either met with flying colors or have surpassed beyond their own beliefs. The Coronavirus pandemic has greatly impacted the Seniors at my school because inside and outside of the classroom, many of them have built lasting bonds with both their peers and staff alike. From struggling to acquire technology to work with at home, to adjusting to having to learn via Google Classroom, all while trying to maintain grades necessary for promotion, has definitely presented the Seniors with many challenges and a roller coaster of emotions.

My Project

As a result of COVID-19, this year's graduating class will not get the opportunity to walk the stage in traditional fashion or celebrate among their peers as they had imagined. Despite the unfortunate events of COVID-19, my students have overcome numerous obstacles and achieved many goals over the last three years that are still worthy of being celebrated. Although it may not be in traditional fashion, I would like to still provide my students with a graduation celebration.

Your donations will help me to provide my students with a celebration that they can still be excited about, alongside a memory that may allow them to forget that they missed out on their graduation day.

A graduation parade accompanied with a bag of treats may seem minuscule, but bringing a smile to my students' faces to remind them that they have not been forgotten, is a gift that has no measure!
