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

This project is for students to be able to check out books and enjoy reading on their level. They will be able to enjoy many types of books that attracts their interest. Also, the thermal binding machine to fix the binds of books when they need to be repaired will always be available to the students.. The students will always be able to check out their books and enjoy their time in the library with a good book. This project will help the students always be able to enjoy their favorite book.
