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

I am a school counselor in a Title I funded, a low-income community in Brooklyn, New York. We are a diverse community with many different educational needs. Our vision is to rise above educational expectations, to rise to be educational explorers and innovators, to rise to be leaders in life, rise to meet the needs of our families, and to rise to ensure that every child has an opportunity for success.

My students need social and emotional tools and games to help build positive relationships, empathy and communication.

Lets Game!
