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
Several of my students wrote me notes that they need Winter Coats.
I am hoping to get my students Life Essential Winter Coats before it gets too cold outside.
All of my students walk to and from school. On several occasions this year, I have had some children not wearing a coat when it was cold outside.
I want all of my 4th graders to come to school and not have to worry weather or not they have a coat to wear.
Please support this project before it gets too cold out. My students and I would be very grateful to you. Thanks so much!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
