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 have been in the classroom for 21 years now and I am looking to start this year with a fresh new nature inspired look. I have request items that will help me make a welcoming space for my new and returning students! I have requested items for a calming area and other basic room décor.

Nature inspired items can bring us closer to our center so that we can have better focus on our learning!

Please consider supporting my project to get a jump on my fresh new beginning! Thanks in advance for your support!
