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 a very diverse group. They come from different backgrounds and beliefs. Some kids have access to technology and some don't have it at home. With the rise in the knowledge of technology for current jobs, all students need to know how to be tech savvy. Our school has a diverse population with 95% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Many face challenges in and out of school and in their homes. School is a place of refuge for some, and I want to provide ample opportunities for them to shine where they are in their development. As their teacher, I see a group of wonderful children full of energy and a willingness to jump in and try new things.
With Arizona being 49th in state funding, it is very difficult to give all students what they need.
In order for our students to compete in the job market, they must be exposed to and be able to solve problems.
My Project
Due to budget restrictions, our students do not receive art class taught by a certified art teacher until they reach fourth grade. The primary grades are expected to create art projects within their classrooms. This requires lots of art supplies and time.
If you supply me with the art supplies, I will make time to create amazing works of art!
We are in need of art supply storage so that students can readily find the paper that they want to complete their work of art. Please help by purchasing this storage system for paper organization.
More than half of students from low‑income households
