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

My third graders are eager to become global citizens and learn about the world around them. These thoughtful, curious, inquisitive young scholars and scientists are hungry for learning. They enjoy creative brain breaks, reading challenging texts, solving real-world math problems, and critical thinking. Above all, they value being kind and being fair. I have never been prouder of a group of students.

We are a Title I public school in eastern Las Vegas full of kind, thoughtful, inquisitive young learners.

Our classroom welcomes a plethora of different types of learners and embraces all.

My Project

I work in a title 1 school, and we only get a limited amount of money for school supplies. Some kids come from families that can't afford those extra school supplies.

Some kids don't have resources at home to do school work, or even eat sometimes.

I want to provide things for my students that assure all projects can get done, and that no child goes home hungry.

We have really great kids at our school that deserve the best, even if their families can't always afford it. every child deserves an equal chance to learn.
