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

Help put books into students' hands! We will be competing in our district's 2nd Annual Battle of the Books. Students will meet weekly to dive deeper into the books to prepare for competition.

Your generosity will give each student their own copy of the books to read at home.

Our teachers go above and beyond to provide integrated lessons for students. Class sets of books will provide opportunities for arts and STEAM integrated lessons all while enjoying and learning from great literature. With your donation, students will not have to share a book, but will learn with their own copy.
