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.
Our students are a full spectrum with a diverse campus in race, culture, socioeconomic status and interests. Our campus serves approximately 635 students, grades 7th thru 8th and between the ages of 12 to 14. Ethnically our students are approximately 87% minorities with 45% being Latin American, 26% African American, and 13% Asian and Pacific Islander. 25% of our students are currently an English Language Learner.
Over 75% of our students come from low-socioeconomic background but their thirst for knowledge is fierce!
My Project
As a group of students who are mostly in the low-socioeconomic range, health and health education is something that is not always on the top of priorities of practicing nor learning about. One way to prevent poor health in the future is, to begin with, know how to heal and keep healthy with the food you eat, the way you live and how to manage your self.
Please help my students be empowered to find wellness, healthy eating, and home remedies with free information in books they can pick up in their library.
Weed out the junk food with books on healthy whole food cooking. How to grow their own plants, make their own wellness teas. Books on how to get their own mind on the path to mental wellness and emotional health. Help give them a chance to make changes now for the best and brightest possible future.
