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

Having 500 students in and out of the art room over 5 days creates a bacteria nightmare. When students are able to use tissues, wipe their spots, clean their hands with soap and dry their hands, we reduce the bacteria we spread to the next class coming in and sitting in the exact same seats.

The art room is such a fun place to create fun and invent masterpieces, but no one wants to do that in a mess.

We use so many fun materials in the art room to inspire creativity. Those art materials can become very messy, very fast so it is nice to have wipes, paper towels, soap for hands, sponges and spray bottles to allow the students to clean and be proud of their art studio.
