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
I work with a group of dedicated, hard-working, eager-to-learn students from low-income backgrounds, many of whom come from single-parent homes, while some live with grandparents and/or relatives. Many of my student population come with IEPs which require individualized interventions to help all students succeed. This comes with varying levels of learning challenges and more effort on my part to keep them engaged as often as possible. When expectations are set high and excuses are left at the door, success is a requirement as opposed to an option. My main focus is to always try to teach them about manners, hard work, organization, and dedication. I teach them that they can learn from their mistakes, that they can help each other, that they are worth it, and to treat everyone fairly.
Oftentimes, students may come in and it is evident that they do not have the necessary hygiene products at home for effective self-care.
This will allow all students to have the necessary products to care for themselves and look their best. Simple everyday hygiene items, such as shampoo, will help to make this possible. It will eliminate any biases that may have arisen over someone looking, smelling, or seeming to be "different".
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
