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
Students from nations all over the world immigrate to our city with their families. The city, although economically poor in many areas, is rich in cultures and heritage from all corners of the world. We have a growing population of Hispanic immigrants, most speaking their native language, Spanish. Many of our students, both native and non-native, struggle to meet basic classroom needs each day. This means that it is extra important for us to make sure they have a school filled with essential items and social-emotional materials that they can access at any time. Their social/emotional well-being depends on knowing that they are free to use these materials that will not run out and that they are supported in all that they do! I am therefore planning a carnival for students at the end of the year to show them how much they are cared for!
The items I am requesting will provide our Brotherhood boys with a canopy tent during a school carnival that will help us support the students' personal well-being.
I am areas so the students can have shade.
These canopies will go a long way in ensuring our students feel cared for by the staff and supported in their social-emotional learning. We will be able to create shaded booths for the kids to use. Students will be able to use and play games all day.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
