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

This program is primarily designed for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students to support the development of leadership skills, culture proficiency, self awareness, and self efficacy. We will encourage students to see themselves as leaders who are capable of excellent things, while understanding the importance of culture and diversity in the classroom.

This year the students will be presenting a Black Carpet event to the community.

This event will be a celebration of their program accomplishments and an opening of a live wax museum. Students will use the books to research historical figures, write speeches based on their figures' lives, and wear the stoles.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
