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 Students
A new school year has just begun. Our group of students arrived; new faces, new smiles, new joy and many new challenges. It is my main goal this year to help my students go to the next level. How? By exposing them to the best experiences that will spark their imagination and promote a solid academic and social foundation during the time they are under my wings.
My students are very unique because they come from different social, cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
Our students are also at different academic levels ranging from early learners to late learners. Our new family in school includes students with special needs and another student with foster parents. As a teacher, I'm constantly striving to bring the best experiences for my students. It makes me very happy to make a difference in their lives!

My Project
My students will return to the school building after they have been living in a bubble for the last year because of the pandemic. My students will have to cope with different feelings and social situations once they return to school and it might not be easy for them.
With a cozy area in the classroom, our students will have a safe corner to relax, learn to cope with different emotions, and feel safe again.
Developing social skills at this age is essential for a healthy life in the future.
More than three‑quarters 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
