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

Our Title I classroom is a place where learning never stops, but to keep our students engaged, we need to support the whole child. Every day, my resilient scholars work incredibly hard, and these requested items will bridge the gap between rigorous academics and essential physical development. Inside the classroom, new whiteboards, crisp markers, and vibrant crayons will serve as our daily launchpads for learning. Students will use them to practice phonics and color-code science models, transforming passive listening into active, hands-on participation. However, high-energy learning requires high-energy release. Right now, our recess options are limited, and fresh play equipment will transform our daily breaks into opportunities for cooperative play, teamwork, and physical fitness. By funding this project, you are providing the exact tools our deserving students need to recharge their bodies on the playground and refocus their minds at their desks every single day.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
