Help me give my students a memory they will keep in their hearts forever.

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

After a year of distance learning, we are looking to host a 6th grade class carnival as an end of the year "hoorah." Isbell teachers want to celebrate their students by gifting them an afternoon of fun! With your help, we will be able to supply fun activities for them to play as well as prizes for their winnings. We are requesting materials for activities include potato sacks, ring toss, knock down bottles, balloon pop, water balloon and other carnival style games. With your donation, you will supply a child's favorite 6th grade memory of all time.

Ms. Cervantes Isbell Middle School Grades 6-8
