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

Science in fifth grade is very important. Students are tested on science material they have learned since kindergarten. I do hands on science lessons with them every day including interactive journals to help them remember and learn new concepts.

Having supply boxes with the materials they need all ready to go will help reduce the time of looking for and gathering.

Most children do not even bring the school supplies that they need. So having glue, pencils, paper, scissors, markers, colored pencils for them will just make everything that much easier to access in our classroom.

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.
