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

The best problem to have is too many books and not enough shelves. The dilemma is that books are harder to access when they are stored in boxes or crates.

Help give our books the shelves they deserve to display their fabulous titles and showcase all of the adventures that students can take.

These shelves will give our students easier access to amazing titles, exposure to different genres, and the opportunity to try new things. By supplying more shelf space, students will have more books at hand to grab, read, and enjoy!
