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

The school I work in is a Title I school, so many students started the school with little to no materials. As the school year progresses and materials run out or get damaged students don't have the resources to get new ones. My goal is to help these students not have to worry about having materials and focus on their learning. I want to be able to give them the needed pencils, markers, folders, and other resources to make them better learners.

My students love to learn and feel part of a community and my being able to give them the minimum to help them succeed gives me joy.

They come to school prepared to learn and ready to grow their little brains. I hope these materials will help them finish the school year ready for the next one to come.
