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 is a unique school. As a Title I school, our students come from a variety of different social and economic backgrounds with over 90% of our students receiving free lunch. Our school is the only school in the Los Angeles School District where students are placed in the most restrictive environment on a general education elementary school site. In 2006 our school welcomed the general education students into our specialized school. Creating a dynamic school community consisting of 50% special education students and 50% general education students.
Our school community prides itself in its efforts to integrate and create an inclusive environment for all our special education and general education students.
Our special education students have a wide range of academic abilities and needs that require them to be placed in a more restrictive environment where they can receive all the support they need in one place.
My Project
Our preschool students have difficulty processing everyday sensory information. Oftentimes they are overstimulated and have a difficult time self regulating. Jumping on a trampoline is one way that a preschool aged child can practice self regulation skills. With this donation, you will help us have a small trampoline in our classroom. This will help students meet their sensory needs by allowing them to continue practicing their self regulation skills. By having a trampoline in the classroom, they will be able to jump on it when needed and with little instructional time loss.
Nearly all 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
