Mrs. Rodriguez from Hope Mills NC is requesting instructional technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Help Us Beat the Heat!

Help me give my students a cooler classroom to work in. Our classroom gets extremely hot and my students have a really hard time concentrating when it's too hot.

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

Our high school students are bright and capable young men and women, eager to learn, socialize and grow with their peers. We strive to provide them with solid and innovative educational and extracurricular programs that appeal to their interests and help them grow as individuals. Our main goal is to prepare our students for their futures as citizens of the 21st Century.

Our high school is located in North Carolina and is largely populated by the children of our military stationed here and overseas.

We are a high needs school, serving a low-income population. Most of our students receive free or reduced lunch. We are seeking funding through this project for extra materials to aid in the education of all these bright young men and women.

My Project

The materials I am requesting are to help give my students some relief from the extreme heat in our classroom. My classroom gets extremely hot, and my students cannot concentrate when they are overheated. They tend to doze off because it is so hot.

I want to get fans to help cool down our classroom and hopefully get my students back on task.

The fans will be placed on each end of the classroom to hopefully circulate the air. I know students will be so happy to have a nice cool environment to work in. Especially since many classrooms in our building get really hot.
