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

I love that my students are working hard on their academic success. Students have to carry a Chromebook to school daily which they are responsible for. Since COVID-19 education has a new normal. Students are learning online and use electronic devices daily.

Can you imagine being 10 years old and carrying a laptop to school each day without a backpack?

My students have been flexible with all the changes that have taken place during the last three years and have been great at taking care of their learning material.

Would you please consider providing basic supplies that will aid students to be prepared for learning?
