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 in a low-income special education classroom, and we do not receive a budget for basic classroom supplies. We are always in need of basic supplies to keep our special education classroom running.

We need classroom posters, hands on activities, and more!

These supplies are really low in our special education classroom, and we would love to replenish them to kick start a brand new year in a special education classroom. These supplies would allow us to keep up our hands-on learning. Thank you for helping this dream happen.
