Ce-le-bra-tion Come Pre-K!!! Let's Celebrate

Help me give my students a wonderful end of the school year celebration.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Otero's classroom raised $702

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

I hope when you are reading this it finds you in the best of health. In Pre-K we have to be inventive with the teaching styles and give more love, compassion, empathy as well as patience and understanding to our students as well as the families. The donations that I ask for is to give us a head start for our end of the school year. In Pre-K we have a lot of cultural celebrations, holiday celebrations and we normally have to borrow popcorn makers or rent cotton candy machines. This way Pre-K has their own and we can continue our yearly celebrations. We also have an amazing Moving Up Ceremony. Many of our parents are unable to do something special for their child so our celebration gives parents a chance to celebrate and not feel bad because they were unable to take them out. We normally cook ,get two cakes and have juice and popcorn. The donations will be used and will make everyone happy. Thank You in advance.
