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 Students

This year, I have the privilege of working as a school counselor. My students just came back from a long hiatus due to Covid. Most of them are excited to spend time with their friends. Quite a few of them are nervous and anxious about being back in a school environment especially the 6th graders that are just starting middle school. My students care about their school environment, community, and each other.

Socio-emotional learning is at the forefront of this school year.

My students can all benefit from a lot of emotional and financial support. As a counselor working in a Title I school, the need for additional resources to benefit the emotional well-being of the community is a priority.

My Project

This project is to ensure no student goes hungry during these hard times. Some of our students don't eat dinner and come too late to get breakfast at school. They come to me hoping to find something to eat or drink. I would like to offer them the choice between very healthy and somewhat healthy snacks.

“Good food is a right, not a privilege - It brings children into a positive relationship with their health, community, and environment.”-Alice Waters.

Being hungry while trying to do school work is not the ideal situation for any student. These items will help them have the food they need to concentrate on their classwork and hopefully bring them success in their studies. The food will also be available for students to take home as needed.
