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

One hundred percent of my students are recently-arrived immigrants to America. My students speak more than 40 native languages and yearn to be part of the "American teen experience.” However, they face many obstacles and unfamiliar stress in adjusting to their new lives in America. Some are the primary caregivers for their families, and feel dire pressure to quickly learn English. Most of my students are forced to balance traditional cultural values with new peer pressure decisions around vaping, sexual values, food choices, and alcohol/substance experimentation.

Building a healthier future for my students means giving them the tools they need to become confident and informed in making their own decisions while also teaching our student community about healthy choices.

Amidst this ambitious goal, the day-to-day needs of our classroom include keeping it clean and healthy. Believe it or not, school funds don't provide for the cleaning supplies we all use in our home, let alone a classroom full of teenageers! It sounds very basic, but being able to sanitize our hands, equipment, tables, laptop keyboards, whiteboard, reading carpet, and other classroom surfaces makes a real difference in creating a hygienic classroom environment where students feel comfortable to thrive.

My Project

Feeling not only comfortable, but optimally healthy, enables my students to thrive through flu season, allergy season and more.

A solid collection of cleaning supplies, as well as hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, a broom and dustpan, and water bottles, will last the rest of the year and help us make the most of our time together in a healthy way.

To keep our classroom clean and healthy, prevent airborne illnesses and viruses in our class, and help students keep hydrated, we need some basic supplies. Students help maintain the cleanliness and hygiene in our classroom, which serves 95 busy, hardworking teenagers every day.
