1st Grade Needs Supplies!

My students need binders, pencil pouches, and expo markers. They come from low-income families and need help getting materials to help them be successful in school.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Khatami's classroom raised $469

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

Our day begins with a quick "Hello" and "Today is going to be a great day." Students know that it's all about your attitude. If we begin our day with a positive attitude, we’ll have a positive “great” day. I try to instill the love of learning and desire to be challenged.

I teach an English Language classroom where students speak Spanish as their primary language.

With this comes a whole set of challenges but also great adventures. I have a classroom of 30 vibrant students who are eager to learn and expand their knowledge. I work at a low-income school, where 95% of kids are on free and reduced-price lunch. With this, students don't always come to school with all of the necessary materials that they need to be and feel successful.

My Project

The materials that I am requesting will allow my students to be set up for success. We are switching to become an AVID school, which is a program to set our kids up for success and teach them tools and organization that will help them grow and learn. Every kid will receive a binder and pencil pouch which has all of the materials to help them in and out of the classroom.

Thank you in advance for your support.

The donation that you will provide for my classroom will allow all of my students the opportunity to come to school feeling prepared and successful. Thank you for making a difference!
