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

This project requests basic classroom essentials such as paper supplies, office materials (like pens, folders, and tape), and cleaning supplies to keep our shared space tidy and functional throughout the school year. These materials will help me maintain a structured and engaging learning environment while also ensuring that students have access to the tools they need to stay organized and focused. With your support, I can spend less time worrying about how to provide these day-to-day necessities and more time on meaningful teaching and learning experiences.

Every student deserves to walk into a classroom that feels welcoming, organized, and ready to support their learning.

Many of my students face significant challenges outside of school, and I strive to create a space where they feel safe, supported, and set up for success. A clean and well-equipped classroom is not just about appearances—it’s about showing students that their education matters and that they are worth investing in.

Your donation will directly impact my ability to create a positive classroom culture—one where students feel respected, prepared, and inspired to learn. Thank you for helping me give my students the strong start they deserve and for being part of our journey toward a successful and empowered school year.

Ms. Nemec Eastside High School Grades 9-12
