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
Our students are some of the hardest-working, kindest, and most impressive collection of kids I've ever known. Their infectious energy pushes our community in so many productive ways, whether it be meeting a paper airplane challenge with focused ingenuity or supporting an uncertain classmate who takes a risk in front of everyone.
Despite coming from difficult neighborhoods and an under-funded school district, our students meet challenges head-on with wit and verve.
They deserve so much more than they have, and I hope you will help them see that!
My Project
Our intellectually curious students deserve a classroom that is as open as they are! Our school is housed in an older building that doesn't have air conditioning, and we demand a lot from students during our 80-minute block periods. On days when the temperature starts to rise, students begin to wilt!
Your support would ensure my students have the cool and open environment they need to focus on challenging mathematics, instead of the sweat dripping down their backs!
They are ready and willing to work hard, but there's only so much a person can take when classroom temperatures creep up to 90 degrees or above.
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
