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 Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd-grade students need bags to help transition their school materials from class to class. Its difficult for them to carry their iPad, headphones and art boxes up and down stairs safely!

The bags will help students become more organized and keep items from getting damaged or becoming missing.

When our students travel to Special subject areas like STEM and Art, they need to bring iPads, Art Supplies and Headphones. Learning organization skills at this age is extremely important to encourage life-long learning.

Our plan is to have students personalize these bags and make them their own! Thank you for your consideration!
