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

As a first-year ESL teacher, I am dedicated to creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment where my multilingual learners can focus on growing their language and academic skills. Many of my students come from low-income households, and I want to make sure they have not only the learning tools they need but also a clean, healthy classroom where they feel cared for and protected. With disinfectant wipes, tissues, and sanitary supplies, we can help prevent the spread of germs and keep our learning space fresh and safe every day.

Together, we can help these young learners thrive in a classroom that puts their well-being first.

Your support will allow my students to focus on what truly matters — learning, exploring, and building confidence — without worrying about their health or hygiene. Thank you for believing in my students and helping to create a space where they can feel secure, valued, and ready to reach for their dreams!
