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

Our center-based Autism classroom has some of the most incredible kindergarteners and first graders you could ever dream of teaching. Their bright smiles lighten up any room they enter.

This new storage unit will open up opportunities for our class to keep our daily materials organized and clean so they're always ready to go.

Students with Autism thrive in environments with strong routines and structure. They benefit from having a consistent schedule and when they know what is expected and upcoming. This storage unit will allow us to keep materials close by, so we always have what is needed to support student success.
