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

Many of my students do not come to school with the adequate supplies to learn to their highest potential. These basic school supplies will ensure that every child has the right tools to allow them to be successful in school.

My students will be so appreciative to receive pencils and not have to scrounge one each day.

I plan on using these materials to give to my students who do not and can not bring themselves. With these materials, my students will be able to excited and ready to learn!
