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

As the new school year approaches, my incoming 3rd-grade class is gearing up for exciting learning adventures. However, we may find ourselves in need of essential supplies to fuel our educational journey. Pencils that scribble ideas into reality, colorful notebooks that capture our imagination, and art materials that transform blank pages into vibrant creations are among the necessities on our wish list. With these tools in hand, we can unlock our potential, explore new horizons, and embrace knowledge with enthusiasm.

Your support in providing these supplies would greatly enhance our classroom experience and empower us to thrive academically.
