it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Support Hands-On Ecology Labs for Our Students!
Our ecology unit allows students to explore the dynamic relationships in ecosystems, from population growth to the critical cycles that sustain life.
Through engaging labs like population sampling and the carbon cycle dice activity, students gain firsthand experience with ecological concepts that connect directly to real-world environmental issues.
Your donation will help us gather materials that bring these labs to life, fostering deeper understanding of topics like population dynamics, nutrient cycles, and human impacts on ecosystems. With your support, students will not only learn science but also gain insights into how we can protect and sustain our planet for future generations.
Thank you for helping inspire our next generation of environmental stewards!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
