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

My students are very special first graders in a high-needs area of a borough in New York City. Most of my students are English Language Learners or children with special needs, eager to learn and discover. Each student is unique in his or her own way and deserves to have the best educational experience possible.

All of my students receive free or reduced-price lunch and unfortunately, my classroom does not always have the supplies we need.

Thank you! Every donation makes a difference in my students' lives. I look forward to creating projects that will make our physical and virtual classrooms a joyful learning environment.

My Project

Help my scholars to stay focused by filling their tummies! I teach bright and beautiful children in a high-need area of New York. While all of my students receive free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch, some of our families are financially unable to give their children snacks for the day, and my students are often hungry throughout the day. My students need snacks such as Cheez-its, Fruit Snacks, SkinnyPop, and Plantain chips to keep them focused and energized for learning all day long! These snacks would allow my students to have enough energy to stay focused on learning and grow their brains throughout the day! I am also asking for face masks to continue keeping everyone save while learning in the classroom.

If we can make sure they get a snack, they will be able to focus better and really build the fundamental knowledge necessary for them to go onto the next grade and continue to be successful throughout the school.

This project is important because our students have a very long day and need some different yummy snacks to help them stay focused and engaged in learning. If we can give them the smallest thing like an afternoon snack, they will be able to keep up their energy and learn even more in the exhausting afternoons.

Thank you so much for your support!

Ms. Perez PS/IS 210 21st Century Academy Grades PreK-2
