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 students are witty, clever, and they each have a great sense of humor. They each have unique personalities and learning styles, with their needs differing greatly.

They are the epitome of resilience, persevering despite the many difficulties they face some faculty and staff have not experienced during their longer lifespans; working closely with them each day is inspiring.

Teaching students with disabilities means I must utilize my creativity, which is what initially brought me to this platform. My students encourage me in ways they may not be aware of, I am constantly in search of opportunities and resources so I am able to give them what they are so deserving of: a quality and engaging educational experience.

My Project

Many of the desks and chairs in our classroom are both broken and outdated. It has served its purpose well for several years, yet the time has come to relieve them of their duty to make room for new furniture.

Educating my students in a 90 year old school that is also a historical landmark is both an honor and a privilege, however we are in dire need of new furniture that provides stability and comfort.

The tables' shape work well for reading instruction, small group work, tutoring, club meetings, and several other activities I host in my classroom.

Additionally, new tables and chairs will provide extra space to make our collective dream of an in class library with a reading nook that doesn't crowd my students as they're seated during instruction.

Gracious donors such as yourself have made it possible for my students to gain access to materials greatly improving our learning environment. Please assist us in meeting our next goal to create a fresh environment during the upcoming academic year.
