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 energetic, eager to learn, and fun-loving. Despite some tough situations some of my students face at home, they come in every day really giving it their all. At our school, 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch. Coming from an urban district and a Title I school, unfortunately, my students do not have as many supplies and opportunities as the surrounding districts.

"The need for imagination, as a sense of truth, and as a feeling of responsibility, these are the three forces which are the very nerve of education," Rudolf Steiner.

For this reason, I work extra hard to raise money for supplies that will be used by my students. These supplies benefit my students in so many ways, and it also teaches them a deeper lesson of how good the world can be. Over the years when I have told my students that we have gotten a project funded and we were getting supplies, the looks on their faces were priceless. My students are so appreciative, and donations from kind-hearted people really impact their lives in such a major way!

My Project

Cleaning supplies and soaps are imperative, they will make a difference in my student's lives at school for many reasons.

Providing cleaning supplies and soap for my classroom will allow me to maintain a healthy germ-free learning environment for all my students.

Cleaning supplies and soap will allow my students to come to school every day to a nice, safe, and clean environment. My students need to have a clean classroom to learn every day. It is important for my students to enter my classroom each day knowing that as their teacher, I will provide them with the knowledge and cleaning supplies they need every day.
