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 a group of wonderfully bright and optimistic kiddos who come from struggling low-income households. Many of my students are learning English as a second language. All of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunches.

Students are eager to learn and grow.

They inspire me to give my best each day because they depend on me, and our future depends on them.

My students are happy children who love to learn!

My Project

Year after year, my students come to school lacking the basic classroom necessities to thrive in the classroom. I love to teach my students to organize their work in folders, notebooks, and binders. I firmly believe that I am teaching fundamental organizational skills that students need to prosper, not only in the elementary classroom but also throughout high school and ultimately college.

By funding this project, you will be helping my students stay organized, increase their productivity, and become more efficient scholars.

Thus, students will be building the fundamental skills necessary to succeed in their future endeavors.
