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

Thank you all for supporting my students. Group funding has allowed me to purchase printers for my students to be able to share their work. They have done so, so often that it is time to "ink up". Seeing students hand writing shows authenticity, yet a print rich environment prepares my students to become professional young adults. The printers that were publicly financed are in need of new cartridges which can be expensive and short lived. Your support will help me get through the next two years of students sharing their work and displaying for their classmates to see and learn from. Thank you once again.
