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 kindergarteners come from low income homes who may not always have fun energy boosting snacks at home.

With the help of our awesome community we can support my kindergartners with an energy boosting working daily snack.

These snacks will be shared with all my kindergartners daily in order to keep them focused and motivated to keep on striving with their academics. Snack time is something my students look forward to everyday. Please help me support my young scholars growth and development with an essential nutrient they need!
