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

Having recently started a new job at a charter school in San Ysidro, I’m learning just how many materials I need! My wonderful students would really benefit from books that they like and supplies that we need. They would love more graphic novels to read and I would love some extra materials to enhance small group instruction time. I am also starting a therapy dog program at the school, so you would be supporting that too! Help us get off to a great start, starting with books they love and materials to make learning fun!
