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 absolutely love how curious, creative, and full of energy my students are! Every day, they come to school eager to learn, ready to tackle new challenges, and excited to express themselves—whether it's through writing, art, or hands-on projects. The supplies I’m requesting—homework folders, subject folders, pencil boxes, scissors, and a variety of art materials—will help keep them organized and prepared for success. With these tools, my students will be able to take pride in their work, stay on top of assignments, and dive into creative projects that bring learning to life. From painting river rocks to organizing their own materials, these supplies will support both structure and self-expression, helping every child feel confident and capable from day one.
