1st Grade Garden Greens

My students need materials to make our own compost, and add to our current garden. They need worms, containers, gloves, liners, veggie kits and more.

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

Last year we had a tragedy hit our school community. A student in 5th grade passed away on our campus on his way out to play P.E. Our whole community was hit hard by this sad event. To try to help the community heal I am continuing a memorial garden in his honor. Please consider helping us.

My Project

The students I teach are from a low socio-economic area. There are a lot of immigrants from Mexico that are trying to make a new life for their child here. Many left amazing land in their home country to get their child a good education. Many had farms and gardens but left those behind.
