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

This is a very emotional and unprecedented time for my students. My students are very inquisitive, enthusiastic, and have a strong drive to learn. Even though my students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds they all come together to create a community of active learners.

My Project

The safety of my students in the classroom is my number one priority. I am not certain when we will return to school with everything that is happening around the world. However, when we do return, I want to make sure my students are protected as much as possible. Educators and schools are doing all they can to return to a safe learning environment. My school is providing a great deal in safety measures already however, I know this is an area that donors can aid us with. The school building, I work at is old which means classrooms do not always have the greatest ventilation and a purifier can help by reducing dust, odors, pollen, and bacteria in the air. This purifier and replacement filters can help us stop worrying about the air we are breathing and focus on learning. Help us all breathe a little easier.
