Black History Celebration

Help me give my students decor and accessories to celebrate Black History Month.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hines's classroom raised $274

This project is fully funded

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

Every year our scholars celebrate Black History by researching and sharing what they learned by performing at our school-wide assembly.

This project includes decor to bring our auditorium and hallways alive with bright posters, backdrops for photos, and bracelets for the children to wear.

Every year the Association for the Study of African American Life and History comes up with a theme for Black History Month. This year's theme is the Arts.

Our scholars will learn about various artists and musicians through student and teacher-made slideshows. This project also includes a wireless clicker to move those slideshows along during the presentation.

Ms. Hines PS 18 John G Whittier Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
