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 class will be composed of twenty-nine 3rd-grade dual language students in an urban school. Our school is classified as Title I and the majority of our students are emergent bilinguals. Our students are interested in learning, enthusiastic, hard-working, and set and strive for appropriate academic goals.

Please help me meet my bilingual champions' essential needs by providing them with healthy snacks, a first aid kit, sanitation and hygiene supplies to maintain a caring, clean, and safe learning environment so that they are ready to learn and achieve their academic goals.

My students deserve the best and need more than I can possibly offer. Thank you for considering donating to our project. All donations are greatly appreciated.
