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

In low-income homes, dreams still shine bright,

But learning tools can bring them to light.

Each book, each supply, a stepping stone,

To help young minds make skills their own.

Your gift—no matter big or small—

Can change a future, and lift them all.

These items help students with special needs access multisensory approaches to education.

My goal for this project is to allow all of my students to access the general curriculum at their own level.

Special education often gets overlooked. Each student deserves an opportunity to learn however best meets them at their level.

Mrs. Debord Burrowes Elementary School Grades 3-5
