Celebrating 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
Our students come from one of the most economically distressed parts of our city. Every day, they overcome challenges in their community, families and their individual lives. These challenges include single parent (or even "zero" parent) homes, violence, poverty and discrimination.
Despite the fact they face many obstacles, they are determined to get the education that will lift them out of poverty and set them on the path to new horizons.
They need to have a rich background of literacy and critical thinking to successfully complete their journey.
My Project
We have a school chess team that has really taken off in our school. Our team has shown that they have the ability to take on any challenge. This has done wonders for their self-esteem and has encouraged them to keep on learning.
We need some chess strategy books that will teach them chess strategies so they can continue to grow as players and learners.
These books will reveal secrets of the game of chess they can use to win more games and trophies.
Please help our kids continue to experience success. They need the tools it will take to win championships.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
