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

Most of my students come from limited socio-economic backgrounds, with the majority qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The majority of students are from Hispanic heritage. CHS has other large groups of minority students, including African-American and Asian-American. The majority of these students will be the first in their families to attend a College or University. My students are inspired to continue their education in a health science education. Our health science programs serve students from grades 9-12.

My Project

Some students choose not to eat at lunchtime because the food being served is not to their liking, others eat at an early lunch, and for other students the snacks that will be provided are small "luxuries" that maybe otherwise too expensive to enjoy at home. Students are always cheerful for a yummy snack and needless to say, a little snack in any class throughout the day will brighten their day.

Snacks will help to motivate and inspire my students to continue to learn.

They will feel welcomed into the classroom and enjoy snacking and learning.
