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'm excited to support my incredible students, who bring curiosity and enthusiasm to the classroom every day. With your help, we can provide them with a reliable computer, a classroom timer, and the captivating book series "HANK" to enhance their learning experience.

A reliable computer will open doors to digital resources and research, empowering them to explore and create.

The classroom timer will instill time management skills, ensuring efficient use of their valuable learning time. The "HANK" book series will spark a love for reading, nurturing their literacy skills.

Our goals are to foster digital literacy, time management, and a deep passion for reading. By doing so, we aim to equip our students with essential skills for lifelong learning and success.

What sets our students apart is their unwavering dedication to learning and their endless potential. Your support will help us provide the tools they need to thrive and reach new heights in their education. Thank you for making a difference in their lives!
