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 Project

As I begin my first year of teaching, I am excited to build a warm, welcoming, and engaging classroom for my second graders at a Title I school. Many of my students face challenges outside the classroom, and I want to ensure that inside our classroom, they have every opportunity to succeed. My goal is to provide a comfortable and accessible space filled with the tools they need to thrive - regardless of their family's financial situation. Thank you for supporting us - the Eagles - as we soar into this second grade adventure together.
