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

Our senior class, is an eccentric group of individuals who have spent 5 to 7 years in our school studying IB. A program that have helped them learned to become world thinkers, inquirers and open-minded. This special group is composed of low-income students who speak English as a second language and have faced numerous challenges throughout their elementary journey. As well as a diverse in cultural. This graduation ceremony will not only celebrate their hard work and achievements but also create lasting memories that they will cherish for years to come.

To make this a festive celebration, we are seeking funding for essential party decorations and awnings to help celebrate outdoors.

We are requesting a canopy, banners and signs.

Your support in funding these essential party supplies will help create a memorable and inclusive celebration for our deserving seniors.
