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
How will the specific items you’re requesting make a difference in their learning?
Providing hats, gloves, and scarves to our students who live in low-income communities and temporary housing will have a significant impact on their educational experience.
These items are essential not only for comfort but for health and well-being during the colder months. When students are warm and comfortable, they are more likely to attend school consistently, leading to improved academic performance. The warmth provided by these items reduces the risk of illness, which can result in fewer absences and more consistent learning opportunities.
The primary goal of this project is to ensure that all students at P.S. 028 Mount Hope Centennial School have access to the basic necessities required to thrive in a learning environment during the winter season. By securing donations of hats, gloves, and scarves, we aim to:
Enhance Focus and Engagement: Warm and comfortable students are more likely to be attentive and engaged in their learning activities, leading to better educational outcomes.
Promote Equity: Ensuring all students, regardless of their housing situation, have the same opportunities to stay warm and healthy during winter.
Our students at P.S. 028 are incredibly resilient and diverse, each bringing unique strengths and perspectives to our learning community. Many of our students come from various cultural backgrounds, enriching our school with a tapestry of traditions and languages. Despite facing challenges such as economic hardship and unstable housing, our students demonstrate remarkable perseverance and a strong desire to learn and succeed.
Their ability to adapt, their curiosity, and their eagerness to embrace new learning opportunities make them special. With the right support, such as the provision of necessary winter gear, these students can continue to excel and reach their full potential, contributing positively to our school community and beyond.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
