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

In our classroom, we believe that a tidy space leads to a focused mind. We’ve already started organizing with some storage bins, and the difference has been incredible—students can find what they need quickly, stay on task longer, and take more ownership of our classroom space.

By donating to this project, you’ll be helping us create a more organized and inviting classroom environment.

Sterilite storage containers are durable, stackable, and clear—making it easy for students to find supplies quickly and return them properly. With consistent, labeled storage, students will learn responsibility, independence, and pride in taking care of their shared learning space.

These containers may seem simple, but they will have a big impact on how our classroom functions every day. With your help, we can make our space more efficient, welcoming, and ready for learning.
