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
I am a part of a Title I school in the beginning phases of establishing a dual language program. My school is a very unique school as we have the opportunity to teach our students to be bilingual, bicultural and biliterate. I serve a wide variety of scholars including those who are in homeless shelters, immigrants and other extenuating circumstances. We are the first and only Title I school in our district that has been presented with the honor of establishing a dual language program. As we are still in our inaugural year of DLI, my Spanish library is in need of highly engaging text to bring the essence of the program to life.
With your donation of new Spanish books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.
They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
More than half of students from low‑income households
