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

My students consist of inner-city children that come from low-income families, and some are even homeless. As a teacher in an urban district, I work with four and five-year-old students ranging in levels of development. I have several students with special needs (IEPs) that are currently mainstreamed into my general education classroom. One student in particular currently has a personal aide to help support her in her daily school-related tasks.

My student population consists of inner-city children mainly coming from low-income​ families.

We are a dual-language school where students learn English and Spanish. We are proud to be a national school of character!

My Project

We are a dual language school where students are taught in English and Spanish by alternating rooms (one week English classroom, one week Spanish classroom). However, due to Covid restrictions, we are not able to conduct the program in the same manner and are teaching English/Spanish within one classroom. While my classroom is decently stocked with English books, I am very limited in Spanish books. I have been purchasing Spanish books weekly to compensate but would love a little help from donors like you. I would be thrilled to have this project funded as my classroom is in dire need of Spanish books. Thank you for your support!
