Celebrating 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
Each school year our school has a theme that we use to pump us up, and as a motivator for various focuses throughout the year (attendance, data, community building, etc). This upcoming school year I would love to bring something different to our school, something exciting that would be a real crowd-pleaser. After discovering our theme would be "Level Up", I thought it was only fitting to make a game room for our students.
The game room will serve as a fun place that can be used as an incentive or motivator for students for various reasons throughout the year.
I am requesting decorations, board games, giant games, and arcade-style games that will amp up the gaming and fun. This project will benefit everyone in the school, and I really hope to be able to bring the vision to life!
