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 young superheroes are eager to learn and grow as scholars and future leaders. We are working so hard to become independent learners during our small group activities.

Our classroom is tiny, but our learning is mighty.

More than half of our students qualify for government meal assistance, and we are committed to creating a nurturing, safe environment for our students to thrive in during their early school years. We have dedicated staff and parents working together to ensure our students have positive experiences and opportunities where resources allow.

My Project

There's nothing more frustrating than classroom equipment that goes on the fritz early in the school year.

Please Empower my future rocket scientists, doctors, teachers, civil engineers, and computer techs, by supporting our classroom technology.

We currently have a projector on loan for a short period of time, and the clock is ticking...and time is of the essence.

My students are eager to learn and work hard, and enjoy school as much as they can. They inspire me with their kind souls and resilient, can-do attitudes. They are my heroes.
