Help me give my students crayons, pencils, glue, and notebooks to equip new students with essential supplies to foster a sense of belonging, confidence, and equality, helping them feel welcomed and prepared to succeed in their new educational environment.

Celebrating 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
As School Ambassadors, we understand the significance of providing school supplies to new students. It's not just about pencils and papers; it's about making a child feel seen, valued, and connected. When we welcome new students with essential supplies, we're showing them that we care about their success and well-being. It's a small gesture that can make a big difference in their transition to our school.
By providing supplies, we're also helping to:
- Level the playing field, ensuring every student has equal access to resources
- Reduce stress and anxiety, allowing new students to focus on making friends and learning
- Create a sense of belonging, making new students feel like they're part of our school community
As grade-level ambassadors, my students are excited to not only provide supplies but also offer friendship and support to our new classmates. "We'll be their buddy, showing them around, introducing them to friends, and making sure they feel included. Together, we'll make our school a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone!"
