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

We are a school located in an urban community consisting of over 500 students with all different ethnicities making up our school. We currently have 203 students identified as English Language Learners. In addition to the various ethnicities at our school, our students mainly come from a high poverty background. One hundred percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch daily.

My goal is to help my students build their educational foundation.

Students come to school each day with the knowledge that our classroom is a safe place to grow and learn together. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can to be college and career ready.

My Project

I am requesting three sturdy tables for our classroom computers.

New tables would give my ESL students and myself more space to move around the classroom.

Our current tables are old, all different sizes and widths and falling apart. These new tables will allow the placement of two computers on each table which means that the students will have room for writing and collaboration projects.

Students that are in an organized and efficient classroom are able to accomplish more. When students are not crowded and limited on their space, it will allow them the opportunity to focus on items in their classwork that are important. These tables will allow them to have a place to sit and do their work while giving them enough room to have peers be able to sit with them to collaborate on assignments.
