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

I have a beautifully unique and vibrant group of students. My 4th graders are eager to learn and always up for a challenge. Their biggest strength as a group is their ability to show compassion and kindness.

Since we are a Title I school, my students are not always afforded the resources that they deserve.

I believe that my students deserve more. Their determination and perseverance speak wonders about what they can achieve if given the proper opportunities, resources, and care.

My Project

At my Title I school, my students are not always afforded the resources that they deserve. By funding this project, my students will have access to both health and academic essentials 5 days a week in-person during the COVID-19 pandemic. By being provided access to materials like gloves, masks, paper towels, and sanitizers it will take a lot of financial stress off our classroom and our students.

As a dedicated teacher, I am committed to providing my students with a safe, healthy, and positive environment.

Thank you in advance for considering to contribute to my vibrant and invincible students. We have managed to stay open since we opened in September. We would love for our students to be able to carry out the rest of the school year in good health and happiness!
