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
My students are middle schoolers at a Title I school in New York. My students come from diverse backgrounds and many from tough homes. They are overcoming social and emotional barriers each day to receive an education.
My students are active and enthusiastic.
They are motivated and eager to do well. They want to learn and are constantly seeking opportunities to take ownership of their learning.
Our school is in a high needs and high poverty area in which most children are on free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch programs. My students work hard despite the challenges they face. Many students stay after school, participate in after-school clubs and activities and are always striving to be, and do, better for themselves and for others.
My Project
Adding a collection of social-emotional, mental health, and graphic novels in our classroom library will help me to provide the support my students need and deserve.
Help me give my students a variety of books that can provide an escape for them, or allow them to better understand their emotions.
The paints will allow students to draw how they are feeling. There are many unknowns and many students are not always ready or willing to speak. The lamp will be a great addition to add an element of ambiance in our classroom as we seek to create a cozy reading nook. Finally, the mask, cleaning supplies, and air filter will help in keeping us safe as we embark on this learning journey together.
More than three‑quarters 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
