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

Imagine waking up to the sounds of Spanish radio and talking with your mama in Spanish as you prepare for school. Heading out the door, you are surrounded by a neighborhood that shares your common culture. However, once in school, you find that the instruction is only in high-level English.

I have an amazing class.

Our local community is formed overwhelmingly by recent immigrants from Mexico and Central America. My students find themselves living in a bi-cultural and bilingual world. 99% are Latino and they live in the most densely populated city west of the Mississippi. Our elementary school strives daily to serve the unique needs of our students and prepare them for the demands and challenges of thriving in a complex world. We know we are successful as we have pushed our API to 800. The test scores merely support the evidence we already see of student achievement. The vast majority of our students receive free or reduced price lunch each day and know the real world challenges that face them. The barriers they face are real and in their face. They see the struggles of family members who struggle with long hours, low-paying jobs, and lack of higher education. The parents want their children to experience the best of opportunities and not repeat their own struggles.

My Project

I've thoroughly researched different technological tools to bring into the classroom. Having fancy toys without appropriate application adds little to the learning in the classroom. Students will be able to access different tools using the tablet. It will greatly expand their access beyond the one functioning classroom computer that we already have. Students will now be able to access high interest leveled reading passages that appropriately engage and challenge each student to make gains in literacy and vocabulary development.

Each morning, the students make a pledge "to themselves and who they want to be" to use each day fully to work towards achieving their goals.

They know that there are no shortcuts and that any dream worth having is a dream worth working towards. They have the drive and are now humbly asking that you kindly join us in this journey. Your generous donation can make a difference to these students--a difference that will have an impact not just now, but into the future as well! Thank you
