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 Students

My students are outstanding young women and young men. They have done their best to follow social distancing guidelines for over a year. Our school is located in one of the areas of our city that had the highest positivity rate. My students have endured so much during this pandemic. They are back at school. The transition has not been easy.

My students feel stressed due to the pandemic and need a healthy way to cope with the stress.

Personal appearance is important for teens. Let's help them to feel good about themselves so they can actively engage in learning.

My Project

My students are back at school. The transition has not been easy for them. They are worried about the health of their parents, grandparents, siblings, and loved ones.

My students need to keep their bodies healthy so their minds stay healthy.

Personal care items such as body cream and shampoo will help them take care of their physical health. Teenagers are overly conscious of their appearance. Taking care of their essential needs will help them concentrate on their school work. It will improve their self-esteem.

Let's help my students to stay healthy during the cold winter month. Healthy teens are happy teens.
