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
This is my second year of teaching and what I've noticed are the benefits of lighting and flexible seating.
My goal is to allow my students to have a relaxing setting where they can read without the disruptive ceiling lights.
My room is a bit cramped, so I'm hoping the stools can help me combat that. Snacks are also great for when a student may be feeling unwell and needs a quick pick-me-up.
These items will help make my room the nice cozy vibes they need to relax and really submerge themselves into the books that they are reading.
More than half of 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
