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

Students all have a wide variety of daily stressors that they have to deal with outside of our school setting. Many of these stressors can have an impact on how they perform in the class.

I aim to provide a calm and serene environment for my students to feel safe and comfortable.

Having our project funded will help us continue to provide and expand on the safe and calming space for our students to reflect and decompress. Our Falcons are hard working, well-rounded students who would greatly benefit from these donations.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
