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

EProject Bridges to Bilingual Brilliance seeks to empower 3rd-grade bilingual learners through innovative, linguistically responsive instruction in math and science. We are requesting chair bands, cleaning supplies and more. By integrating culturally relevant pedagogy, hands-on STEM experiences, and language development supports, this project will bridge the opportunity gap for emergent bilingual students, ensuring academic achievement and development. Project Bridges to Bilingual Brilliance is an opportunity to transform the educational experiences of bilingual learners by honoring their language assets and elevating their capacity in math and science. With your support, we will build a classroom where language is a bridge—not a barrier—to brilliance.
