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 Project

The school has historically had about 44% of scholars identified as being chronically absent. We have reduced that number down to 38% and are expecting to go even lower for the 24/25 school year. This has largely been due to our current attendance incentives through our weekly giveaways. We are expecting to go down about 4-5% this year and every little bit of support and encouragement helps. Please help us continue to reduce our chronic absenteeism by promoting our perfect attendance incentives. At the end of each trimester, we will select two lucky scholars with perfect attendance to get either the Razor electric scooter or the Razor 360 coaster trike. Thank you for your giving heart. We are truly blessed and appreciate you!
