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 work with English Language Learners and art supplies are always in need. They need the materials and supplies to learn the culture, the academics, and the new language.

The markers, watercolor pencils, and colored pens will be used in our art center.

Other items such as hole punchers and staple removers will make our daily lives easier. The switches and paper cutter will be used to craft special projects with electrical circuits. We always need a pencil sharpener to keep pencils sharp!

Please help us finish the year strong!
