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

Around our school we have a large amount of community workers such as nurses, doctors, firefighter and police officers. Our students would like to create one care package for each of these stations to help enhance their mental wellness.

We would love to create meaningful care packages- with student created cards to provide them the opportunity to show that they matter.

Our students would create care packages and this would teach them that we should always show appreciation for those who do so much for us. In their care package- we will be providing food, drinks, and cards to help enhance their mental wellness.
