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

My students are curious, hard-working 6th graders who are excited about learning and have persevered against unprecedented obstacles to continue their education remotely. They are kind, caring and want to change the world, and I'm so proud of them. All of my students are students of color and many of them come from low-income households.

My Project

My students have inspired me every day with their willingness to work hard in spite of technology challenges, the anxiety and unrest in our communities, distracting home environments, and countless other obstacles. No matter what, they were engaged, thoughtful and supportive of one another. I want to celebrate what they've accomplished this semester with gift bags for every student. They deserve to feel acknowledged and to be reminded that it is also important that they take time to be kids and have fun. Funding this project will help me surprise my students and brighten their days.
