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

My outstanding, hardworking 8th graders attend school in the Bronx and most of them live in low-income households. Over 80% are under reading level with a wide range of skills. They are eager to begin their bright future, starting by being successful in the classroom!

My focus is to inspire these young social activists​ to be warriors of KNOWLEDGE, despite the various hardships they have faced in their young lives.

These 8th grade kiddos are truly an inspiration and filled with love for learning! Our mission is to gain an equitable education with an unlimited amount of possibilities to learn and build leaders.

My Project

The new school year is approaching in full gear! This means that I have been given the opportunity to inspire 8th-grade minds and challenge them to find the writer within. To be able to accomplish our goal of becoming literary activists that use words as our source of power, my students need the right tools to do so such as: pencils, colored pens, paper, construction paper, Post-Its, etc.

My students are extraordinary writers with stories just waiting to be written!

All my kiddos have a passion for writing; however, many of them don't have the privilege of being able to afford their basic school materials. But these setbacks​ WILL NOT and CANNOT come in between their rise to excellence!

Help us build our classroom writing center to ensure that my students always have the necessary materials to tell the untold stories of their community.
