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

School is many of our students' safe space from the many challenges they encounter in their daily lives. Despite the challenges they face on an everyday basis, they demonstrate resiliency and grit in their academics and future goals. Some of the daily challenges that hinders our students attendance includes: mental health, transportation, and stressors in their home. As a way to motivate our students, we want to be able to recognize them for attending school everyday. With the help of your donations, we will be launching an attendance campaign where students will have the opportunity to exchange tickets that they receive for being in class on time for various incentives (i.e. coloring books, water bottles, fidget toys, etc.). Encouraging perfect attendance will help with increasing achievement and motivate our 6-12th grade students!
