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 Students

Our students are simply the best! Most of our students come from hard places or have stories that you wouldn't believe. However, they come to school every single day and are some of the most resilience human beings I have had the pleasure to meet. Our students come to school to be safe and learn!

At our school, our students learn the benefits of mindfulness as everyone has access to their breath.

They practice in their classrooms! Even when we don't think our students are paying attention, they surprise us by sharing times that they use mindful practices when things get stressful in their life.

My Project

Our students practice mindfulness daily inside their classrooms. However, sometimes their lives are scary and unpredictable. When this is the case, it sometimes is really hard to be available to learn in class. Having a calm space when they can go to regulate themselves is crucial for them. In this space they will practice regulation skills to remind themselves that they can indeed get through whatever life throws at them. Last year we were able to get a room built within our counseling office, but we do not have any items to make it into our mindfulness room. This project will change that!
