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’m a school counselor at a Title I charter school. Most of the students we serve come from adverse backgrounds, including low socioeconomic status families.

My goal is to provide a safe and loving space for ALL my students.

This project will ensure that I can help fill in the gaps so that students receive an equitable education.

I love my job and my students. I wish I could always provide for each and every one of them when they need additional things such as school supplies, snacks, clothing, and more.

I’m just a counselor trying to make a different in my community. All it takes is one trusting adult for students to feel heard, understood, and loved.
