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 science to high schoolers in NYC, both general education students and students with special needs. It is a public school and we are often lacking the basic school supplies which our lessons require. This year, I would like to concentrate more on science literacy which requires to have a notebook, writing supplies, folders, folders organizers, etc. Every student is special and unique. All of them need some way of our support, so I am asking you to support my students with a start-a-year supplies program. I know some students will come prepared for the school year but some will not. To smoothly start the school year without lacking pencils, notebooks or pens,etc., I would like you to donate as much as you can so we could worry about learning science and developing scientific skills. Everything will go towards my students' education and make learning more interesting and possible. Thank you so much for your support and understanding.
