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

Thank you so much for your generous support!

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to provide my students with flexible seating options that will transform our learning environment.

My students are bright, curious, and full of energy. As English Learners in a Title 1 school, they work hard every day to overcome challenges, embrace new concepts, and support one another like a true classroom family. Their resilience and eagerness to learn inspire me daily, and I want to create a space that honors their unique needs.

With your donation, I plan to introduce a variety of seating choices to help my students learn in ways that suit them best:

Wobble stools will allow my more active learners to move while they work, helping them stay engaged without disrupting their focus.

Floor cushions will give students the freedom to choose a cozy spot where they feel most comfortable while reading and writing.

Rocker chairs will create a relaxed space for collaboration, group discussions, and independent reading.

Each of these options will support my students’ ability to focus, collaborate, and feel empowered in their own learning journey. My students are special because they embrace every challenge with determination and joy. They come from diverse backgrounds, bringing a rich blend of experiences and cultures into our classroom. With these flexible seating options, I hope to give them a learning environment that reflects their needs and strengths.

Thank you for making this possible! Your generosity is truly making a difference.
