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
My school is an inner-city school. We serve a diverse population of students and families.
We serve a student population of English Language Learners and with many students living at or below the poverty line.
Since our school serves a very high population of economically disadvantaged families who face many unique challenges, the staff at the school partners with families to not only support students' academic needs but social and emotional needs as well. Despite language barriers, they come to school eager to learn.
My Project
My students need individual book boxes when they return to the classroom. They need an option for storing their books and workbooks, headphones, and other personal items when they are not using them.
In the days of our new normal, I am working so hard to keep my students safe, and having individual book boxes would be in their best interest.
With the students having boxes the students will not have to share the storage space of their materials. The students will love having their own space to keep their personal items.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
