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 school emphasizes the respect of self and others. This encompasses discipline and high expectations as well as activism and compassion. The kids know they will be Agents of Change and follow our school motto, "Be the change you want to see in the world." - Mahatma Ghandi

We are classified as a "highest poverty" school and the kids at our school are brilliant.

They deserve excellent educational resources. Although my kids may lack financial resources, they have an incredible work ethic and desire to learn. We are a full Title I school, a vast majority of our students qualify for free or reduced lunches.

Our students may lack the material privileges that other American children are fortunate to have, but they certainly make up for it with talent, fortitude, and sheer intelligence. We live in a world where our youth are simply not provided with enough quality resources to shine; your donation will make the dream of a bright future come true.

My Project

My students are eager, active, curious, and imaginative hands on learners. My students enjoy working cooperatively and display great creativity. I am requesting LEGOS and storage bins for them to make engineering, imagination and creativity come to life for my students. Students will use their imagination to create. Students will not only be able to think critically but also they will feel free to create whatever comes to their minds.

Please help my students be creative problem-solvers and equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills to be innovative and imaginative thinkers.

With your generosity, bring more creativity to my classroom and students will not only feel successful but and provide them with the necessary life skills.
