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
This year, the National Education Association's Read Across America week is March 2-6. In order to make this experience meaningful for secondary students, this project funds a class set of The Beautiful: Poets Reimagine a Nation.
THE BEAUTIFUL highlights the United States’ foremost poets, one from each state, district, commonwealth, and territory, all celebrating some form of beauty that they did not create.
The result is a multi-generational, multimedia anthology and exhibit of a deeply personal nature, one filled with collective wisdom.
Featuring US Poet Laureates, Pulitzer Prize-winning poets, poet-teachers, and experimental poets, this collection revolutionizes our ideas of beauty and belonging.
Students will be able to utilize this text to learn about geography, history, poetry, art and more! In addition, we will create a class anthology of "The Beautiful" we find in our own community. Thank you so much for considering a donation to this project!
More than half of students from low‑income households
