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 am a school social worker that will be working with students grades k-5. My role at the school is to support students with their mental health so that they can continue on their academic journey with success. I teach students important social-emotional skills to learn how to cope with everyday stressors and trauma. We often work on verbalizing their emotions appropriately for them not to have problems in the classroom and have more opportunities to learn.
We often play therapeutic games, create art, and learn about mental health.
This is my 3rd time relocating offices, and I am blessed to have enough room to create an art station and calm corner! These materials like brushes and markers will be a big help in filling up the space in a way that will benefit my student's experiences when they come to meet with me for counseling.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
