Project: for My Community

Help me give my students the opportunity to receive an equal education and provide them with a space where they can learn without worrying about the adversities they face outside of school.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vargas's classroom raised $648

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

The materials I have chosen will help my students focus on their learning and not on small things such as not having a pencil. Also, the hand soap will allow my students to practice hygiene especially during these difficult times of pandemic. The voice amplifier will help project my voice since it has been difficult to hear me with a mask on. My goal is to provide a nurturing, safe and fun learning environment for my students despite any adversities they may face outside of school. My students will thank you!
