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

Our school hosts numerous new-to-country students facing challenges due to a lack of essential resources for daily life. Recognizing this, our class is creating this project as a solution by incorporating care package assembly into school jobs. Utilizing available materials, students in the centers can sort and pack items at a designated table, benefiting not only the new-to-country students, but also offering valuable skills and a sense of purpose for students with special needs.

The structured activity of care package assemblage becomes a meaningful way for students with special needs to actively engage in sorting and packing essential items.

This hands-on experience fosters a sense of accomplishment and teamwork, allowing these students to contribute to their peers' well-being. The initiative promotes a positive and inclusive atmosphere within our school, fostering empathy and a sense of community among all students. By addressing the immediate needs of new-to-country students and involving students with special needs in the process, the school creates an environment where everyone can positively contribute to the school community.

Your help in making this possible will help ease the burden and struggle of these students. Let us show them that we care!
