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 Project

My 5th grade students and I need to get back to basics. Students spend a lot of time in and out of school on screens. I want to provide my students with whiteboards and dry erase markers to solve math problems. My students need these basic supplies to enhance their learning. This is the last year of elementary school for my students and they deserve the ability to enjoy art with a wide variety of colors. My students are smart and extremely creative. I want to ensure that coming from a high poverty area does not affect their quality of education in my classroom. Thank you for your donation. Your contribution will have a lasting impact on my students. They will be forever grateful for your kindness.
