This project is fully funded

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 Project

My students love reading colorful books, writing words and drawing pictures. However, some of them are low achievers, which causes them to become very frustrated and discourage.

The students are 1st graders who will be learning how to formulate their reading, spelling and writing skills with one-on-one assistance from the teacher and mentors.

They are attending one of the high priority poverty stricken schools in Michigan, where books, supplies, academic games, furniture and computers are very limited. Most of the scholars come from single parent homes. Many of the parents are overwhelmed with their daily chores which prevent them from being involved with the challenges of their children's education.
