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 school is in an inner city school. We serve a diverse population of students and families.
We serve a student population that predominately English Language Learners and 100% of the students receives free or reduced lunch.
Since our school services a very high population of economically disadvantaged families who face many unique challenges, the staff at the school partner with families to not only support students academic needs but social and emotional as well. Despite language barriers they come to school eager to learn.
My Project
My students are needing flexible seating options during literacy stations. The chairs will be at the teacher table and the writing stations. The chairs we currently have are beat up and and some are broken. The floor seats will go in our comfy reading library for students to sit comfortably on the floor while reading their books.
My students are going to enjoy teacher table in new chairs and will enjoy reading on the new floor seats at the reading station.
This will help create a more inviting classroom environment where the students will want to come to school everyday.
Nearly all 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
