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

Every child should have access to the basic needs of life so that they can focus on their education. At Nathan Bishop more than 80% of our students qualify for free or reduced lunch. As a community, if we can assist those who are struggling to keep their focus on education, we will not only be improving the individual lives we touch, we will also be improving our overall community.

My Project

A group of teachers at my school decided to start a caring closet that students can shop in for products or clothing items that they might need. A majority of our student body struggles to overcome many of the things taken for granted by others such as access to clothes, school supplies, personal hygiene products, and many other simple necessities. families are struggling to put food on the table so they might not have money for a new toothbrush or shampoo. We would like to assist the families at our school who are struggling and sacrificing during these difficult times.
