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 Students

It is an honor this academic year to have young scholars who are eager and determined to learn. The school is classified as a Title I school. Therefore, scholars and families lack basic essentials. Many of the scholars in my classroom have recently arrived from their native countries. The scholars' native countries consist of the following: Bangladesh, Lebanon, China, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Senegal.

The classes I facilitate instruction are categorized as English as a New Language and Special Education.

In addition, the scholars are deficient in foundation skills (e.g. addition, subtraction, etc.). Many of my scholars have not had the opportunity to attend elementary school in their native countries. The scholars’ academic deficits are in the following subjects: Language, Reading, Writing, and Math.

However, despite the scholars' academic deficits, they are enthusiastic and strive to learn. I am dedicated to supporting scholars and families by providing school supplies (e.g. notebooks, pencils, and book bags).

Finally, I support the scholars to develop self-confidence, independence, and thrive to succeed academically and socially.

My Project

Students desperately, need Snack Chest Care Packages for snack time in the classroom. Many of my children are unable to bring snacks to school because their families are encountering difficult financial circumstances due to job loss, sickness and more.

If the students have the Snack Chest Care Packages in the classroom, they can eat and share snacks on a daily basis.

Finally, the children also need the five gallon water jug to keep hydrated in class during the course of the day. Students desperately need the snacks and water to remain focused and hydrated.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
