Help me give my students a year-end celebration highlighting their accomplishments and perseverance!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Percy's classroom raised $991

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

This year has been a challenge for many students personally and academically. Many fight battles we cannot comprehend. Whether challenged with different abilities, poverty, homelessness, food insecurity, transitioning into the US from other countries, etc., these students have made every day the absolute best! Through all the pits and peaks, our students have persevered and made it to graduation. Most spent every Monday through Thursday after school until 5pm completing schoolwork, getting extra help, and working through life issues!

Please help us celebrate their incredible achievement with a year-end Perseverance Party!

Your donation will fund party supplies and treats for each student who has achieved an incredible feat this year!
