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 the privilege of working for a charter organization in the San Fernando Valley that promotes leadership among our students through hands-on projects and studying the contributions of others.

We are a Title I school with a high percentage of students that qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The student population is reflective of the surrounding community. We work with a diverse group of multilingual learners. The school offers an inclusive special education program to ensure we are meeting the needs of all students.

In addition to fostering leadership skills in our students, we develop the students' social and emotional skills through the use of animals, such as therapy dogs. The students at our school are creative, bright, and eager to learn.

My Project

After a year and a half of at-home learning, students and staff are thrilled to be back together again in person. Now, schools are facing different obstacles this school year. Due to safety precautions, students are encouraged to avoid sharing communal supplies with their peers. Instead, each student has their own desk and set of learning materials.

The requested supplies will help to ensure that students are still able to partake in hands-on, engaging activities that they were able to participate in prior to the pandemic.

The labels and bins will mark and hold their individual supplies. The caster cups will help to ensure their desks stay in their designated spots. Students can use their own earbuds when working on their school devices. The art supplies will allow each student to take part in fun art lessons this year.

My students are very excited to be back at school. Thank you in advance for helping to individualize and enrich their educational experience during this unique school year.
