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

A Cricut machine will be essential for new creativity in our building it will allow students to design their own shirts and designs. It will allow students to play with different cutting designs. Allowing students to have a creative side, especially in an after-school program, exposes the students to their arts and crafts side. The items in these carts if to fully expose students to learn how to be creative, having them create their own certifications, t-shirts, and even play with cardstock. These items only provide the materials, the creative side will come with the designing inside the building.
