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

Having snacks and essential school supplies available to all students in a school is necessary. Snacks address students' immediate needs, such as hunger or low energy, which can significantly impact their focus and emotional well-being. My school is a community for newly arrived immigrants from different cultural backgrounds. Starting a new life in American school and learning a new language is challenging for all students.

One of the common issues at our school is that some students don't have permanent housing, warm meals, clothes, or school supplies.

Counselors at our school do their best to support all students. One of our projects is lunch time peer tutoring. All students who need help with homework, classes, or Regents exam preparation are welcome. Since our school is international and everyone speaks a different language, we pair tutor and tutee based on language, which makes it easier for students who need help. This is done during lunch time so we want to make sure that we are able to provide snacks and drinks to students who come and study with us. This project is not only helping with classes but it teaches our students to collaborate and work together. Giving them snacks during this time always makes them happy, and they are excited to return for the next study sessions!
