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

This year I am teaching 30 high fourth graders. I teach in a Title I school, located in a very high-poverty and high-crime area of Pennsylvania.

All of my students receive free breakfast and lunch.

Many of my students come from homes where English is not spoken. I have eight special education students and five ESL (English as a Second Language) students in my classroom. Several of the students in my classroom have an in-class social worker. I would appreciate as much support as I can get for my little ones. Thank you in advance.

My Project

I would love if each of my students could bring home juice, macaroni and cheese, and soup at the end of the day.

I am hoping to get my fourth graders Life Essential drinks and food to bring home.

It would be wonderful if each of my students could choose their favorite drink to take home. I would also love if they could bring home macaroni and cheese as well as soup.

Some of the drinks include: pineapple juice, grape juice, orange juice and even cranberry juice.

I want my students to not worry about being hungry or thirsty when they get home. I want them to focus on their studies and well being.
