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

Superstorm Sandy hit our town and left behind horrific damage leaving my students without everyday necessities. Their education is their lifeline and constant stability. Please help our classroom and fill it with some of our favorite books and supplies.

We are a Title I elementary school in NYC with a diverse population.

We are developing the students literacy and math skills and love for school. Our students are passionate and creative, however the school lacks the funds to provide materials for an extremely exciting classroom experience. Our goal is to enrich their lives so they will be lifelong learners and positive members of their community.

My Project

My students need an iPad, iPad case and screen protector, VGA adapter, and audio speakers. The iPad will be used for class lessons, audio presentations, and as an internet source in the classroom. The case and screen protector will be used to keep our new technology safe and pristine. The VGA adapter will be used to connect the iPad to our classroom projector. Lastly, the speakers will be used so all students can hear audio from the iPad.

Our young scholars are the future of this country.

With your help, these students will be able to become life long learners and positive members of society. Help my students dream big and reach for the stars.
