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

Providing a real, meaningful education for all learning styles is essential. My students try their best, despite their struggles outside of school. Having all of my students receive current events and culturally relevant reading material is essential to their learning.

Allowing students to learn through material that they are interested will provide for an enduring education.

Your donation will help them start off on the right foot in math and SEL.

Being heard in the classroom and providing real life examples in Math and SEL a voice, is a step in the right direction not only for educating students but for educating a community.
