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

The students who attend my school are culturally diverse. Over 90% of the children are growing up in poverty.

Despite the hardships they face, the students are hard-working, driven leaders.

Our school is high performing, with results rivaling schools in much higher economic areas. The teachers have high expectations and the students are meeting them!

Our school is filled with knowledge-hungry students and devoted, hard-working teachers. The school is located in a close-knit neighborhood in a large, urban school district.

My Project

Many of the students at our school are in need of more uniforms. Our school nurse and social worker coordinate to donate uniforms to students in need, but their uniform closet is getting low on these essential polo shirts and pants.

At our school, each grade level wears a different color polo shirt which helps everyone in the school to identify students.

Without their grade level uniform shirts, students will very obviously standout from their classmates.

These uniforms will allow students to be in a clean, good-condition uniform shirt and pair of pants everyday, allowing them to feel confident in their appearance.
