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

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We need your help in getting everything through our door! The paper will be used to copy worksheets and their homework. The pencils are so that the students have a way of completing their worksheets.

When the budget is tight due to the end of the year, students still need to learn with paper and pencils.

The donations to this project will help to improve my students' learning. We will use these materials to help us become better learners. I truly need your support to make this a reality. Thanks!

Ms. Perkins
Grades 6-8
