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 all very motivated and ready to take on any challenge! They stay after school on days we don't have practice and are fully committed on the days that we do. Each girl is special in their own way and truly represent what it means to be a team player. They all care for each other and show respect towards everyone.

Each girl has something special to offer, whether it is helping another one with technique or making sure their teammate feels included.

They are all so passionate about playing sports and put their all into every practice.

My Project

The materials I chose for this project are specific to our team's needs. Every year our team practices every day to prepare for our upcoming season. It is difficult to get a good practice going if we don't have the proper equipment.

By donating to our volleyball team, we can continue to keep our winning streak going and inspire our girls to make it championships!

Our team works very hard every year and our students are very motivated. I know they will be very grateful to have new equipment.

Our volleyballs from last year have been overused and are not in the best condition. Some volleyballs were also lost due to us having to share with our physical education class. Therefore, these volleyballs will help the team have a proper practice.
