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

I am requesting various furniture and accessories to decorate and furnish a study space for my students. A study space provides students with a calm and fun space to complete work and study.

Our school population is comprised of majority immigrant students who are brand new to our country; these students come to us with a lot of needs.

We at IS5 do our best to meet these needs to the best of our ability.

We are setting up a study/homework space for our ESL learners to work in their academic goals. When students are given access to safe and bright spaces to do work they are more inclined and motivated to get their tasks completed. At my school we strive for student success. Our study spaces give our students a place to be productive free from distractions and noise. Thank you for considering supporting our study spaces with your generous donations.
