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

As the economic crisis in our nation becomes more and more severe, families are forced to make decisions regarding how money is spent. When a family has to pay for heat, food, and rent, purchasing school supplies is often not the highest priority.

Our middle school has 1400 11-13 year old students eager to learn!

1/3 of our students are homeless, and 100% receive free lunch. Although our students have many barriers like poverty, gangs and homelessness, our students still strive to be the best. For the past three years, our students have proved that they are not only dedicated but that nothing will stop them! Our community is tight and is always willing to do more to contribute to our neighborhood.

My Project

Students will take ownership of their backpacks and school supplies. They will learn to organize their materials and take pride in their work. Currently many students are carrying shoulder bags that do not hold all the materials necessary for all 6 subjects in school. Help our students reach higher goals by helping them stay organized and be prepared with a donation of backpacks.

When students are organized, they do better in school and take pride in whatever they do.

Many times a simple backpack will help a student feel proud of what he is doing. Help students stay organized and be prepared.
