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

Some students come to school hungry, so I will have snacks to make sure they are prepared for testing. I will also have snacks for when they finish. They say that they don't always like breakfast and lunch, so I try to provide snacks for them.

My students come from different homes and environments and, at times, don't eat until they arrive at school.

We play educational games, and these snacks enhance winning and learning. Changes have made this a challenging school year, so I like to end it with a party.

Ms. Patterson River City Middle School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
