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 teach in a Title I school. This is my 15th year teaching and my 8th in Kindergarten. Our district has cut funding and teachers drastically. My students are unable to bring school supplies from home.

These essentials will get our classroom started for the year.

We are in need of headphones in order to use our required computer system. Pencils, crayons, erasers, and whiteboard markers are used daily for all skills. Paper pockets are used for handwriting practice, math skills, and games.

Thank you for considering donating to our classroom!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
