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

Learning a new language is a daunting task - and becoming multilingual is a huge success! Upon the successful funding of our project, we will be able to support encourage, and celebrate the victories of our students throughout the year!

JEM is a school nestled just outside Nashville, TN, and it is filled with students embarking on the adventure of learning.

A vast majority of our students - (76%) - are multilingual students adding English alongside their regular grade-level content. They take part in special English Learner (EL) programs during the day and have to meet even more challenges than their peers who engage with school in their first language. These students also are assessed towards the end of the year by the WIDA Access test, which measures their English proficiency. The test can be challenging, but our EL students thrive and soar and show exponential growth on the assessment every year!

Our project is designed to celebrate all how these students are succeeding! They have worked hard to meet their growth goals, develop their oral and written language skills, and thrive in the school environment. Won't you join us in encouraging the successes these students have shown over a school year? We are so grateful for your support!
