An Artful Class and Community

Help me give my students the gift of displaying their art for our community!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chavez's classroom raised $386

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

Please help me give my students the joy of being able to share their unique and colorful art pieces with our community. Art is a valuable school subject because it allows students to be creative, make sense of the world around them, relax, and sometimes even deal with difficult emotions. In addition, art is fun and helps put color into our class, our school, and our community.

One of our class goals this year is to create beautiful art pieces and share them with others at our school and with our wonderful community.

The paint, markers and construction paper will enable my students to create art to share with everyone.
