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

Crafting club! Students love to stay after school and grow together and encourage each other and other students with encouraging gifts. They love building relationships with other students, teachers, and staff. Building these relationships encourages them to love school and learn how to communicate and work with others.

We also want to encourage our campus students through all that we do.

One way is to give to others and use the talents we have to benefit our community. Teaching this valuable lesson to students is a lesson on giving with our natural gifts and fostering an excellent campus community where students feel loved and appreciated.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
