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
Underfunded Teacher Needs Supplies
Over my past 24 years of teaching, the cost of supplies has drastically increased, while my classroom budget has not.
As a teacher who lives near a major highway, we often have new students enroll at our school that are homeless or struggling at home and can't afford school supplies. I often use my own money to buy the supplies they are lacking but this can get very costly. Headphones, glue, scissors, etc. are items we use everyday but I have a limited supply this year. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
More than half of 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
