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

When we came to our school in the fall of 2021, it was ranked last in our district (and close to last in the state) for student growth, or the measure of how much students learn in a year. We were almost ranked last in reading, math, and science proficiency. The school had even been considered for state takeover due to its historical performance.

We knew our kids were so much more than test scores, but that they also had the capacity to learn much more than they were showing on state tests.

In just four years, our school has gone from almost last in many measures to number 1 in math for the entire county AND 6th overall in reading, math, and science composite proficiency. No one would have believed this was possible, except for maybe our teachers and our kids. We knew what they could do!

One of the ways that our school has achieved this incredible growth was through our afterschool enrichment and tutoring program. This free program provides students with additional academic support in reading, math, and science. We also have enrichment programs to support students' interests in art, reading, science, music, sports, and more!

We would like to provide snacks to our students who stay for our program. Because our school day begins at 7:45, some of our students have finished eating lunch by 11:00. Even with an afternoon snack, that's a long time to go without more food for brain energy!

Thank you for considering funding our proposal and for supporting our incredible students as they continue to do what no one believed was possible!
