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

Our school is dedicated to preparing our students to be successful socially, emotionally, and academically both now and in the future. We believe that through our commitment to learning, collaboration with families and the community, and collaboration amongst educators that we are preparing our students to become the next generation of leaders.

As a special education teacher, I strive to help my students become active learners within their classroom community.

I want them to succeed alongside their peers and become independent thinkers. I work alongside teachers in different grade levels. By working together we create an environment where every student can reach his or her potential.

My Project

Our school's PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) team is busy planning our end of the year carnival. Throughout the year we plan different events to help promote positive behavior and increase our overall attendance. Students who demonstrate our school rules, being safe, being respectful, and being responsible, get to participate in our school-wide incentives. Even though we have had many fun activities this year, our school-wide carnival is our final school-wide activity of the year, and is the one that the students look forward to the most throughout the year.

By donating to our project, you will be helping to make our school carnival the most successful one yet!

We chose prizes that the students are really excited about trying to win, such as emoji bracelets and key chains, bracelets, sports balls, stuffed animals, bubbles, and toy cars. Each student at our school will be able to go home with a prize from a variety of choices. This variety will also get students in grades K3 through 5th something to choose from! They are always excited when they get to pick their very own incentive to take home. The face paint will allow us to have our face painting station and give our face painters some new paint to use. This specific station is one of the most popular tables at our event.
