FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Joseph M. Valentino's classroom raised $287
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 Students
Our students are smart, creative, and hardworking individuals. Our students are very special to us and deserve the best. They are superstars and excel every day with smiles on their faces.
Science and Art are very important subjects in schools but are both under-studied in our school and BOOKS.
We lack the materials needed to have successful and meaningful art classes properly supplied.
Our students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!
All of our students love learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are!
They are truly an incredible group, and we are lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!
