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

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! The expo markers and spray are to ensure students can see the material written on the board and provide them a clean environment. The same goes for all tissues, cleaning wipes and hand sanitizer. Our building has no windows and germs spread easily - so having these items in our classroom will ensure student's health and safety. The pencils, markers, bins and cart are to ensure we have all the materials needed to have an effective lesson/classroom throughout the entire year!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
