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 Project

Hello! I'm a teacher to some AMAZING students in DTLA. This project is an effort to create a stable, safe space for students to learn and thrive. Lighting and fidgets will help the students to calm and self-regulate during stressful times.

Not every teenager is capable of sitting still and learning for an entire hour and a half class period.

This project will help to provide more spaces in our classroom for children to grow, learn, and thrive.

The Department of Education is facing major funding cuts. This project is an attempt to make sure my students do not bear the brunt of these loses.
