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 students are amazing because they show up every day eager to learn, grow, and support one another. No matter the challenge, they stay curious and committed to doing their best. They set goals, celebrate progress, and never give up—constantly striving to achieve and make their dreams a reality.

Their determination and positive spirit inspire me every single day.

I love doing what I can to always make their dreams come true. Many of my students come from diverse backgrounds and face challenges outside the classroom, but they never let that stop them from giving their all. They deserve every opportunity to succeed, and with the right tools, there's no limit to what they can achieve. These supplies will guide them to an easier year being able to fulfill their goals of being the best learners possible.
