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

I teach an incredible group of third-grade students who are eager to learn, full of curiosity, and always ready to take on new challenges. They come from diverse backgrounds, and despite facing obstacles, they show up every day with enthusiasm and a desire to grow.

Right now, my students are struggling with broken and wobbly chairs that make it difficult for them to focus and stay comfortable during lessons.

Providing them with sturdy, ergonomic chairs can create a safe and supportive learning environment where they can concentrate, engage, and participate without distractions.

My goal with this project is to ensure that my students have a classroom that meets their needs, where they can sit comfortably, collaborate with their peers, and focus on their education without worrying about unstable seating. Having reliable chairs will improve their posture and well-being and help create a more organized and welcoming classroom space.

My students are special because they are resilient, hardworking, and full of potential. They deserve a classroom that reflects their dedication and provides them with the comfort and security needed to thrive academically and socially. With your support, we can make this possible!
