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

Although our schools provide some supplies for our students, there are items that are used every day in the classroom that are not. This project will allow my Kindergarten students to have access to basic classroom supplies like markers, caddies, multicultural crayons, beginner's pencils, highlighters, folders, and sheet protectors. These are all basic classroom supplies that are used daily and throughout the school year.

Our students require adequate basic school supplies to access quality education.

Your support with this project will come in handy to bridge the budgetary gap for school supplies to our youngest learners!
