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 a bright group of young adolescents beginning the school year for in-person learning at the end of April! It has been a rocky school year and many have decided to switch from remote to blended learning. They are excited to continue our learning journey and to finally meet physically with their teacher and have the joy of being back in the classroom!
All of my students are special needs so enhancing the classroom with materials normally out of our reach will help enrich their learning!
My Project
Having Spanish-language books in our classroom will help support and strengthen our students' literacy skills in their home language to be able to translate those skills to the English language.
Since our students are special needs, it is important to have access to teacher-made materials and be able to print them and laminate them straight from the classroom!
My students all come from low-income homes which makes it really difficult for them to have access to basic school supplies. Donating to my project will allow our students the basic necessities of the classroom!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
