Help me give my students all that they missed out on this year! I want to be sure to provide my new class with all that they will need to help them succeed in kindergarten this year.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ruiz's classroom raised $555
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
My students are some of the most energetic and creative kindergartners in New York! I teach 25 lively Kindergarten students. We are always on the move and I am constantly looking for new activities to keep them engaged in their learning. In my 5 years teaching kindergarten in the Bronx, I’ve realized that my students learn the best through hands-on learning experiences, they definitely have a love for school and this will set the tone for a happy and productive school year!
My Project
Colorful caddies, book baggies, KleenSlates, and more... Can you think back to your first experience in school and your very first Kindergarten Class? I want to recreate that most inviting and engaging environment for my students. After this past year, and living through the current situation, these children will truly deserve the best that education has to offer them!
With your help and your donation, you can help to make my vision become a reality for my future kindergarten students!
They are going to flourish when they are engaged in such a welcoming and inviting classroom with all the extras included!
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
