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.
I am honored to teach a wonderful population of students. A majority of the students are English Language Learners (ELL), and my school serves as a host school for refugees coming from various places.
I look forward to every day with my students, embracing the wonderful differences and experiences they each bring.
I want my students to know they are valued, loved, and safe when they come into the classroom. I strive to model and teach a growth mindset so each kiddo knows that their potential is limitless.
My Project
What started out as a 6 week after school club has blossomed into a plan for a full-fledged competition cheerleading squad at our Elementary school! We are happy to give our students a chance to be on the ground floor of something wonderful.
Being a part of the cheerleading squad gives our students a sense of purpose and friendship.
They are learning skills that are applicable in more than just a sports environment; their dedication, time management, work ethic, and teamwork skills will carry on through the rest of their lives.
We are starting this club from the ground up, and could use your help to make this a reality. The shorts and pom poms are a part of the uniform our students will wear to perform for the school and take them to competition. We appreciate your support!
