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
The materials requested are for students to be successful in their households. These items are imperative for students to have in order for them to start taking their education seriously. The biodegradable pencil cases will be filled with pencils, glue sticks, erasers, pencil sharpeners, scissors, and colored pencils to ensure students have everything they need to complete their homework.
Most families at our school are unable to afford new uniforms for their students, let alone school supplies.
Even in first grade students are laying the foundations for responsibility. By providing them with materials to take home, I am fulfilling my role as their teacher. I am giving them every opportunity to be successful. I believe every student deserves the right to succeed no matter what financial background they come from.
Colored pencils, pencils, pencil sharpeners, scissors, glue sticks, erasers, and biodegradable pencil cases are just the bare necessities for student achievement in the classroom. Donors would be providing students with something so basic, but too critical in their advancement in their academic careers.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
