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

This upcoming school year, I am taking on yet another new challenge. I will have the chance of once again teaching all subject areas to a fifth grade classroom. The wonderful students at my school make up the most wonderful fifth graders located in South Philadelphia. Our school is a very diverse school where forty percent of our school population are English language learners. There are fifteen, different languages spoken at our school. Our school has a strong community that works endlessly for the benefit of our terrific students. Everyone from the principal, staff, students, and their parents work together each day.

My Project

As we are making plans to return to the classroom this fall, students' health is of the utmost importance. Keeping our classroom clean and sanitized at all times is a priority for us all. Therefore, we need your help.

Please help my students get such cleaning items as disinfected wipes, hand sanitizer, hand soap, paper towels and tissues.

These basic products will be a small step to keeping our classroom clean. Once students can feel that their classroom and health needs are being met, learning in a face to face environment can take place. Thank you!
