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

My school district is facing a budget deficit of over $100 million for the next school year. This means there will be about $50 million that will directly be cut from our school sites which will cause schools to have to make tough decisions about how they use the little funding they will be given. These cuts will deeply affect the school's ability to support its teachers in purchasing classroom materials and supplies for the upcoming year.

Funding this project will mean that my students will have access to learning supplies and materials they need to be successful scholars throughout the school year.

These materials will help my students independently practice skills they learned during the mini lessons. Whether that be practicing math strategies on their whiteboards, using bookmarks with helpful reading strategies, grabbing spelling tools when they get stuck, modeling with math manipulatives, or editing their writing with pens and whiteouts. All of these supplies typically come out of my own paycheck and with your help, I'll be able to supply my classroom with necessary materials without having to worry about my own financial stability through another year of budget cuts and staffing shortages.
