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 am seeking support to provide flexible seating options that cater to my students' unique learning needs.

These adaptable seating arrangements will offer comfort and enhance their engagement, helping them thrive in the classroom.

Flexible seating also enhances my students' comfort and interest, which allows them to focus on learning without unnecessary distractions. My students will love learning in these comfortable spaces.

Your contribution can make this vision a reality. Please support me in creating an inclusive and empowering learning environment for these incredible students.

Your generosity will be felt for years to come.
