Help me give my students a multilingual and multicultural library to provide them with resources that reflect their diverse backgrounds, facilitate their language acquisition, and foster a more inclusive learning environment.

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.
My Project
What I Love About My Students
Our students come from a rich tapestry of cultures and linguistic backgrounds; they bring with them a wealth of experiences, traditions, and perspectives that enrich our school community.
What I love most about them is their resilience and eagerness to learn. Despite facing the challenges of adapting to a new country and language, they show remarkable determination and curiosity. They are excited to explore new ideas, make new friends, and succeed academically.
How Each Resource Will Help Them Learn
Bilingual Books: These will bridge the gap between their native languages and English, helping students understand new concepts while reinforcing their primary language. By offering stories in both their native language and English, bilingual books support comprehension and foster a love for reading.
How These Resources Will Make a Difference
The requested resources will make a significant impact on our students' learning experiences. Bilingual books and dictionaries will help bridge language barriers, while cultural storybooks and enrichment materials will create an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity.
Goals for This Project
Enhance Language Acquisition: Provide students with tools that facilitate their English learning in a supportive and engaging manner.
Promote Inclusivity: Create a library that reflects the diverse cultural backgrounds of our students, fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance.
Support Academic Success: Equip students with resources that will help them succeed academically by improving their language skills and understanding of different cultures.
Encourage Lifelong Learning: Inspire a love for reading and learning that extends beyond the classroom, helping students become lifelong learners.
What Makes Our Students Special
Our students are special because they embody the spirit of resilience and adaptability. They are navigating a new educational system and a new language with an incredible level of courage and enthusiasm.
More than half 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
