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

Hi. This will be my first year teaching. It has taken several years of hard work to get me here but I made it! I am very excited and also a bit overwhelmed. I still have a lot to learn as a start this new career and I know that getting through the first year is what will be the toughest!

I plan to use what I am given for my students to give my students a hand in being prepared to learn.

I walked into my new classroom and the pencil sharpener was broken so I am in need of a new one and the hand sanitizer is needed to help stop the spread of flu and Covid-19.

My goal is to set my students up for success!

Ms. Fidel Sam Houston High School Grades 9-12
