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

One of our Core Values as a school is "Change our World and Our Place within it." Our student led Social Justice Exhibition allows students to make an impactful change in our community.

Our Social Justice Exhibition is an inspiring initiative that empowers young voices to explore and address the pressing issues of equity, inclusion, and justice in our community and beyond.

Students will get the chance to present these projects to members of our community!

Your generous donation will help provide the resources needed to bring student projects to life. By contributing, you're not only investing in education, but also in a more just and compassionate future led by informed and engaged young changemakers.
