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

Help my classroom get the necessary materials for success. Students are often in need of snacks or quick energy boosts to stay focused in class. This project will allow students with low energy to stay present in their learning endeavors.

Pencils are always in high demand and having a large number of replacement pencils streamlines the learning process and reduces distractions and wasted time.

Thanks so much for considering the needs of my students when giving. Your generosity makes learning more enjoyable and easier for a large number of wonderful students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
