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

My students are students with exceptional needs. When they come to the Resource Center, they feel welcomed and supported.

Help me give my students soccer balls, compasses, composition notebooks, paint brushes, and other items for classroom use.

My students are taking eight classes and sometimes they ask for balls to play during lunch, since the P.E. lockers are close, they don't have access to the balls.

These materials and snacks will allow us to prepare for a successful 2023-2024 school year.

My freshman students will be very thankful for the support as well.

Ms. Chelin Hollywood High School Grades 9-12
