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 Students
From South East Los Angeles, most of my students are from 1st and 2nd generation immigrant families. Many of them recognize that going to collage is the way to benefit their families and communities. Many of my students are planning to go into different medical fields; dentistry, veterinarian, biochemistry, nursing, etc.
My students have learned that it is possible to adhere to rules (something that I strongly enforce) but at the same time be a creative, expressive, individual (something that is encouraged).
My Project
Our school Fremont High School, is trying to create a Performing Arts Program after not having one in decades. Since we are starting fresh, we have absolutely nothing in terms of make-up,tools, materials/supplies to build sets, create costumes, etc.
Studies have shown that arts programs are highly beneficial to student success in school.
Arts programs instill discipline, increase attendance, and improve achievement scores.
Our administration is supportive and is trying to scratch together a budget for us. However, being a new program there are few sources for funding available.
Our students would be grateful and greatly helped by your assistance.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
