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

Sometimes our students need a snack to keep them going for the day. We often go out on outings and our students don't bring snacks or drinks so by having these snacks we are helping them fill their stomachs and continue their learning. Our students will have one less thing to worry about when having full stomachs. Once they have these snacks, they will be able to continue with the school activities.

By providing the students with the snacks we are showing them that we are here to support them.

Snacks and drinks bring joy to anyone and helps to turn a frown upside down. These snacks will help make their day, therefore please help us make our students' day.
