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

I am requesting another round of snacks for my students as the last snack box is already gone. In addition I am looking to add to my indoor classroom games with a brand new marble run! Lastly, I would love to promote Social Emotional Learning with calming strips for each student.

My students are a very sweet class, however many of them come to school and rely on us to provide their meals for the day and night.

Many of them look forward to the routine and consistency.

Your amazing donations will give my wonderful second grade class a sense of security and warmth.
