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

My students have come to school hungry sometimes and also worried they don't have food for the weekend. I would like to send home snacks so they can have something to eat. We as a school community are always worrying about our students’ well being when they leave us. Single wrapped snacks will help my students in many ways while they are at home or at school. I would like to make a help yourself bin so they have a safe place to grab a snack when they get hungry. Please help my students have a snack bin in the classroom. Thank you in advance.
