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

I am thrilled to be teaching math and science to my incredible sixth graders this year! These are my favorite subjects, and I just love this age group. My students are enthusiastic about learning new things and are full of energy!

Our school has a spectacular staff and incredible community support.

Even though we are located in a low socioeconomic area, it is clear that parents want the best for their children by their active involvement.

My students face many daily challenges, as many come from foster homes or might be experiencing homelessness. However, they always come to school with dazzling smiles, ready to have fun learning!

This is going to be an amazing school year because so much has changed. It was difficult to transition to distance learning as neither staff nor families were prepared. Now, we are ready and our students are eager to start learning online. It will look so much different, but I am confident that we will all do our very best.

My Project

We are a PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) school, where students are encouraged to make good choices with positive rewards. Typically, staff would be handing out 'Bulldog Bucks" to students who are exemplifying respect, responsibility and safety. They love earning this currency to spend in the school store. However, since we are distance learning, staff can not physically hand out bulldog bucks and students are not able to visit the store this school year.

I would really like to continue our positive behavior supports by supporting ASB's new Student of the Month program.

Teachers submit nominations for student of the month every month on a Google Form. Those nominations are put into a hat and drawn at random. Every month a new student s selected from every grade level. We would like to reward these hard working students with a fantastic certificate and a $25 Amazon gift card.

Your help will have a tremendous impact on our class community. Having this reward in place will promote positive behavior and give students something to work towards. Thank you for your help and consideration.
