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.

I teach a great group of high school students (9th-12th grade). We have really strong cultural and ethnic diversity and students who really want to learn and better themselves.

My students would love to read about how J. Paul Getty was able to achieve the success he did and how they can position themselves to do better. They are used to learning more from real world examples than theoretical.

We would like to get a classroom set of books that can be used by the students to read and study in class. They will also use these books as resources in business projects they complete.

You help will make it possible for my students to take advantage of this great resource and inspire them to further success.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
