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

In our classroom, staying organized and prepared makes a big difference in how students learn and succeed. With your support, we’re hoping to secure essential tools like a printer for classroom materials, book pouches to keep student reading organized, a pencil dispenser for easy access to supplies, and a paper cutter for prepping engaging activities.

These resources, along with other basic essentials, will help create a smooth, efficient, and supportive learning environment where students can focus on growing and achieving their best.

As a title 1 school, every item will help us stay on track and bring learning to life.
