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
As we attempt to return to normal after the worst pandemic in a century, I need your help keeping my students healthy by having access to cleaning wipes, air purifiers, and ergonomic materials for the teacher.
Students are missing a lot of school because of winter respiratory viruses.
I use air purifiers and UV wands to disinfect the class, thus helping reduce absences. It is very difficult for students to catch up, especially when taking advanced courses. A clean classroom is a must in a post-pandemic world.
As a hands-on teacher, I stand almost the whole day, and would deeply appreciate help in acquiring a standing mat. Ergonomic keyboards and seat cushions will help when I am grading essays.
More than three‑quarters 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
