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 Students
My Title I, level I (lowest 25%) Specific Learning Disabled (SLD), Emotionally/Behavioral Disabled (EBD) high school students are in ICU! Yes, some students are enrolled in Intensive Reading Plus! More than 90% of the student population qualifies for free and/or reduced-price lunch. Approximately 80% of the students live in single-family homes.
These 9th and 10th-grade remedial readers attend a Title I school.
There is a negative stigma to Intensive Reading or Intensive Reading Plus classes. Some have Individual Education Plans, while others really struggle to remain proficient in English and Math. For these students, inclusion into positive worlds will not only help to close the achievement gap but put much needed academic confidence into the hands of students.
My Project
It has become necessary to request female hygiene products that are environmentally friendly. Each month there are a number of students that request items from me and several of my coworkers.
Many homeless and foster care high school students need sanitary pads, antiperspirants, paper plates, and cups.
It has become evident that several students count on me to provide them with these necessary items not only personally but also to submit assignments and projects.
The rigor and stress that students face today are varied. These young people really need the help and support of community to assist them in succeeding and meeting their basic monthly and academic needs.
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
