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 school, our students don't have the opportunity to experience dances in our school with their parents due to limited resources. This project will help us provide that experience for our students to bond with their parents/guardians. Having an in-school dance would provide our students with a safe environment to cherish their moments.

Please help us in building and bringing closer together our community bond by allowing us to provide for our school dance.

Students will be building bonds with not only their parents but with classmates as well throughout the school by working on their social-emotional learning.
