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 students are spunky, bright kids who come from low-income areas. They may not have everything they need while attending school via Zoom. I am committed to providing the best education for my kiddos. Although the families do not have the resources to provide, I will be sure to do just that.

My Project

With this project, I will be able to organize class sets of boards, books, etc so the students can have a peaceful and clear mind when in the classroom. I have included lots of bins to organize my classroom library, classwork/homework that is turned in, markers, and dry erase boards.

These materials will be organized throughout the class so students can access the materials whenever needed.

I have also included class sets of markers, crayons, and glue for the students to use since we are a low income school and most parents cannot provide the materials needed for the school day.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

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.
