Celebrating 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
All of my students participate in a special program on our campus called Destination Imagination, where they explore creative ideas and participate in challenges at the local, state and national level. My students participate in the Fine Arts challenge where they write and perform their own unique play.
This project is for paint, canvas, and a backdrop stand to support backgrounds for their unique plays and bring a splash of color to their work!
Students will be able to express themselves in creative ways and let their imaginations soar with this project!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
