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

Hello, getting to know "know hunger." I am a New York City seventh-grade, math teacher in The Bronx. I requested the items in my cart to work toward a new PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) program. As well as, these snacks, Mac n Cheese, Frito Lay Chips, and candy will be used to keep students from being hungry throughout the day in an effort to continue the Allstate Fighting Hunger narrative.

The snacks are incentives to keep students task-oriented and motivated in coming to school.

The chips, candy, and Rice Krispy treats will be offered to grab and go to offset hunger throughout the day.

The students in my school are Title I and suffer from a lack of resources and the snacks will supplement what they have at home.
