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

My students come to school hungry mornings, and I will like to make sure they can get off to a good start by a good small snack. These snacks will also be available for all students around the school when needed. I love to treat all students when they are helpful, and this is also a way of teaching children to always give back. I want to assure parents that their children are in safe hands while they are here in school, this brings parents comfort. I want ensure every child is well taken care of in my care.
