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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Parents and teachers want every child to stay dry and comfortable when they are playing outside, especially on rainy days.

A children's raincoat is an essential piece of clothing that provides protection from the rain while keeping your child comfortable and stylish.

Because of climate change, when it rains for about 1 hour there is so much rain and my students are never protected. This causes them to get wet and become very sick.

Another advantage of children's raincoats is that they are breathable meaning that even though the raincoat keeps the rain out, it allows air to circulate through the fabric, preventing your child from getting too hot or sweaty while wearing it.
