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

My students are incredible learners with unique abilities, boundless curiosity, and an eagerness to grow. They thrive in an environment that is engaging, supportive, and tailored to their diverse needs. In our special education classroom, every tool, book, and resource plays a crucial role in helping them succeed.

With this project, I am requesting new books to encourage a love for reading, snacks as incentives to keep them motivated, cleaning supplies to ensure a safe and healthy learning environment, and communication devices to help students who need extra support expressing themselves.

These resources will make a significant impact by fostering independence, reinforcing positive behaviors, and creating a space where every student feels valued and supported.

My goal is to make learning not just accessible but exciting for my students. With your support, they will have the tools they need to stay engaged, safe, and empowered every day. Thank you for believing in their potential and helping us build a classroom where all learners can thrive!
