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

Our students are some of the most resilient, determined, and courageous individuals, constantly breaking through barriers that society or even their own circumstances may place in their path. These students receive education that is customized to meet their unique needs, which has led them to grow in academic areas that seem challenging. Having the proper supplies for our students will meet their academic needs to thrive, feel support, and build confidence in their learning. The right supplies help create a positive and productive learning environment where students can fully engage with their lessons and develop essential skills. Also, having a fridge filled with snacks play a vital role in boosting focus, enhancing social interaction, calming emotions, and offering students a necessary break.
