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

Basic Supplies for Science Class- Students need supplies to succeed and grow!

I’m reaching out to ask for your support as I transition back to teaching middle school science in Rio Rancho Public Schools.

We are a Title I school, meaning many of our students come from low-income backgrounds and struggle to afford basic supplies.

Our classroom will be in need of resources like art supplies, notebooks, and lab materials. Without these essentials, our students can't fully engage in their learning. Your donation could make all the difference, giving them the tools they need to succeed.

By supporting our science class, you are not just helping with academics. You are also empowering these students to break the cycle of poverty and build a better future for themselves.

Every contribution counts, no matter how small. Let's come together to give these students the opportunity to thrive in their studies and beyond.

Thanks for considering it!

Respectfully and with gratitude,

Katie Weeks

Mrs. Weeks
Grades 6-8
