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

Help my k-12 school community through their grief journey by helping us create a peaceful space for a rock garden with messages of healing, hope, and kindness.

My goals for this project is to invite our community (staff, students, and parents) to join us annually to paint rocks, spread messages of hope, practice mindfulness, and build community with one another.

As well as, using it year-round, for anyone (virtually and in-person) to visit to practice mindfulness and/or receive messages of kindness.

Our Home Hospital provides instruction to k-12 students who are unable to attend a traditional school setting due to medical and/or psychiatric needs. Our students receive instruction virtually, at home, or in the hospital. Our community is especially impacted by grief but exceptionally resilient.
