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

I love how motivated and curious my 4th grade students are. They come to school every day ready to take on new challenges with enthusiasm and heart. As a Title I classroom, we often have to do more with less—but that never stops my students from giving their best.

Having access to printer ink may seem small, but it makes a huge difference in our day-to-day learning.

With it, I can provide printed materials tailored to each student's needs—like reading passages at the right level, practice pages for essential skills, and visual supports that help all learners succeed. It also allows students to see their work displayed proudly, boosting their confidence and ownership over their learning.

With your help, we can keep our classroom running smoothly and ensure that every student has the resources they need to thrive. Thank you for supporting our growing learners!
