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

I currently teach a very diverse group of 25 3rd grade students with a variety of learning styles and needs. One of the best additions to my classroom has been incorporating flexible seating options for engaged and comfortable learning.

Students thrive when their needs are being met.

Many of my students do not learn best in traditional learning environment and often prefer to work in locations around the classroom. Having the ability to give them comfortable and flexible areas to learn is a huge priority for me to be able to provide to them.

Ms. Barr STEM Academy Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
