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 as a fourth year teacher love the diversity I get that walks in my room every single day. I love the fact that they love coming into an environment where there teacher cares, loves, gives them her best everyday because I set them up for success everyday they walk in my room. Having the essentials like pencils, erasers, notebooks, pencil grippes, notepads to write down homework and folders to some students can make them or break them. By you funding my project allows me to take that stress of of them and focus on civics and their duties as citizens.

Our classroom is full of curious, creative students eager to explore and grow.

However, we face a lack of up-to-date, hands-on materials that can truly spark engagement and support diverse learning styles. With your help, we can bring in the tools our students need to succeed
