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

I teach an amazing group of students at a Title 1 school. Teaching at a Title 1 school with budget concerns can be a challenge. Help support the next generation by purchasing culturally relevant books for our classroom. Each student deserves to experience the joy of reading and these books will help do just that!

Students need to see themselves in the books that they read.

By supporting this project, our students will be able to read bi-lingual books from multiple cultures and perspectives. Thank you for considering a gift to help support these amazing students!
