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.

I teach 32 kindergarten students. My school is title 1 in a high needs community. The school is located in California and lack the funds to help.

My students need new big books with a book rack. These books are high interest themes related to state standards in science.

These books are high interest books and songs that explore science themes in the classroom. The books need a secure place for children to access, the need for a big book rack.

Your help will ensure that my students will have great literature in the classroom. And a place to put the big books away.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
