This project is fully funded
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
We have a strong community (family) school where all the teachers know all of the children and their families. I teach in a public school. I see 758 students a week. I teach low-income students and they are truly a ray of sunshine. They do whatever I ask and they don't complain. We make some of the equipment we use in class.
For every stage of a person's life, there is a place called home, a place where you feel special, and where everybody is either friend or family.
My Project
Mental health is the most important aspect of teaching that I focus on this year; we are seeing adverse behaviors and students with various needs in the classroom that are related to behavior. The donations will help provide a very natural and safe way for my students to express themselves.
I am seeking art materials for them to use to express their feelings.
I want them to recognize that they are special people in this world and that they make a big difference in shaping this world. They are the future.
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
