Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Please help my students get a Peaceful Rest at Rest Time. My students are having to rest on mats that are falling apart, and the cushion is coming apart. By providing them with new mats, it will give them a great opportunity to get some good rest at rest time. My school's population is about 80% economically disadvantaged students. I love to be work with our population of students, because I feel I can help give them a better opportunity to succeeded in life. I love to empower my students to be better than they were on the day before. I'm a teacher who loves to provide a safe environment for my students, where they can feel comfortable and secure in my classroom. I'm also the kind of teacher that strive to provide my students with the best quality Education, so they will be successful in life.
