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 Project

Many cases of students lacking success in their classrooms have to do with students’ level of preparedness. Having something as simple as writing utensils and paper are things that can determine the progress and achievement of the student. School supplies impact the success of the student in ways that most people fail to recognize. In fact, many students are never truly prepared for the day because they come to class lacking supplies, thus leading to a difficult time learning. That said, school supplies play a very important role in education and how students grow and develop.

The majority of my students have economical disadvantages, and it’s hard enough trying to make it through the school day because of having to remember where to go and what to do.

Having everything that they need while at school prepares them and gives them a sense of security that they otherwise may not have.

I am asking for pencil, erasers, and other essentials my students need in the classroom, so they can stay focused on their learning without having to worry about what they do not have.
