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

Science is a hands-on way to discover so many new things! Experiments are always so fun and exciting!

Our school is a Title 1 school, meaning that the majority of our students are low income and at-risk of dropping out before they graduate.

The students in our grade level are full of excitement for science. They love experimenting and discovering during science labs. We want to encourage this as much as we can so that maybe one day they will grow up to be at a job in the science field.

My Project

We have an amazing science curriculum at our grade level. We have so many experiments to learn about matter, forces, living organisms, etc. However, we do not have any safety goggles. We want our students to know about lab safety and the importance of following lab rules. One of the biggest ones is to protect your eyes. We will use these safety goggles to keep our students on our grade level safe.

As a donor, you have the ability to make a HUGE difference in not only these students' lives but also the lives of students for many years to come.

We appreciate donors like you and know that our students are better because of you. Thank you for considering donating to our grade level.
