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 Project
Please help me get resources that will allow our garden to go to the next level. We are hoping to have. a garden in which food can be grown. In order to do this we need a drip irrigation system to keep the plants alive during the summer when we are not in school.
This irrigation system will allow plants and trees to survive throughout the year when we are not in school in providing food for our students.
This drip irrigation system will make sure that the urban garden we have flourishes and contains to be an ecosystem for organisms while combatting global warming.
More than half 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
