Celebrating 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 Project
Let’s face it, germs are going to make their way into a classroom whether we like it or not. However, with your help, my students and I can work our best to keep one another safe and healthy. This project would benefit all students because the healthier we are, the more time we spend in the classroom. The more you learn, the more you know, the more you know, the more you grow. Having the resources for students to be able to clean their desks when they feel necessary, as well as weekly, is so important to me as an educator!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
