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

Our Wellness Center works with a student body of 1100 students mainly from low-income households. The Wellness Center is staff by a wellness coordinator, school district nurse, therapists, and a community health outreach worker. Services offered by the Wellness Center include individual therapy, group therapy, case management, sensitive services, and youth leadership development opportunities. Additionally, the Wellness Center hosts a Department of Public Health clinic on site two days a week. Students are able to receive various types of birth control, emergency contraception, and STI/HIV testing and treatment.

The Burton Wellness Center is designed to address all the health and well being needs of students and staff.

Our students are unique and have an array of needs that we strive to meet within the Wellness Center. When we can’t meet a specific need, we collaborate with community-based organizations to come on site to support students or to refer and coordinate student connections to other agencies outside of school.

My Project

My project is about helping my striving students get some personal items that would help them stay clean at school and at home. My students are high school aged teenagers, as a result; some of them sweat a lot and need clean clothes that they can wear. Therefore, I need help in providing them with necessary personal items like socks and pants to help improve their self-confidence. Providing them with clothes that would help them have confidence in themselves would be a blessing. Being cold makes it nearly impossible to pay attention in class, want to go outside, or walk to school. We have high expectations for our students, however, it is difficult to watch student struggle because they are too cold to focus on learning.

My students need socks and pants that would help motivate them to participate in PE and sports (especially when its outside in the cold).

I need your help to provide my students with personal needs that would help them improve their self-esteem and also help improve their academic performance. Many are too proud to come and ask for assistance, however, we are making it more comfortable and inviting for our students to come and ask for help.
