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 love the resilience and determination of my students, who show up every day eager to learn, despite the challenges they face. Many of my students come from low-income families and often arrive at school late, which means they miss out on breakfast or lunch. Without a proper meal to start their day, they struggle to focus, which impacts their ability to learn and engage in class activities.

By providing snacks for students who arrive late, I can help ensure they have the energy and focus they need to succeed.

These snacks will give them a chance to refuel and be ready to participate fully in lessons, helping them to stay on track academically.

My goal for this project is to provide students with the support they need to start their day strong, ensuring they have the physical and mental energy to succeed in the classroom.

What makes my students special is their ability to overcome obstacles and their eagerness to learn, even when they face adversity. By meeting their basic needs, like hunger, I can help create a positive and productive learning environment where all my students can thrive.
