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 Project
My students are hard-working and dedicated to achieving their goals despite everything going on in their lives.
My students are survivors, they are overcoming their situations and building a better future for themselves and their families.
The total minority enrollment is 80%, and 60% of students are economically disadvantaged. Our students do not have the same opportunities as other students to learn skills that will help with their self-esteem or self-expression. Many of them lack the skills needed to self-regulate their behaviors and often engage in inappropriate behaviors that lead to consequences that take them out of the school building.
My students need these items to give themselves a creative outlet. These creative outlets will help with their self-esteem and self-expression.
They cannot afford to buy the things they need on their own, and the school certainly does not have the funds to put towards this.
Please help us create an incredible opportunity that can be used by students who are in need of your help
More than half 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
