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

Our 2023 - 2024 school year is off to a great start! The students are settled into routine and are trying out different activities that the school offers.

Different extracurricular activities are underway - students can be found in different classrooms all over the school after hours - the gymnasium is being used by different sports and if you listen closely, you can hear singing coming from the auditorium!

This project will help support the different in school, as well as after school, activities students are involved in. The raffle tickets and the storage bin are for fundraising, the business cards, batteries and the make-up wipes are for the spring musical and the colored pencils and the glue gun glue sticks are for being creative!
