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 Students

The almost 900 students at our school live in a low income neighborhood with limited access to basic school supplies. We are a Title I school with almost all of the students qualifying for free breakfast and free lunch each day. On average, 2-3 students in my classroom are considered homeless and struggle to find suitable housing. They qualify for assistance through The McKinney Vento Homeless Assistance Act.

Although my students have limited access to resources, they are enthusiastic to come to school each day, to learn many new standards.

I look forward to giving my students many of the much needed supplies this year by asking generous donors to provide these supplies.

My Project

Each year, we are given a limited supply of classroom basics to start the school year. But this year, we received less materials. Colored markers have been taken off of the list of items we can request, so I am requesting markers, colored paper, dry erase boards, glue sticks.

All of these basic classroom supplies will be used in my 5th grade classroom this school year.

None of these supplies are provided be my school anymore, so I appreciate you considering my project.

With the glue sticks, markers and colored paper, we will be able to continue our art projects.
