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

For many kids in our school, life isn't easy. Some come from families facing tough times, and it shows. Hunger can mess with focus, making learning a real challenge. That's why giving out snacks isn't just about food—it's a game-changer. A quick bite can mean a lot, boosting energy and making it easier to pay attention in class. Plus, it lets these kids know someone's got their back, making them feel at home in our school.

But it's not just about snacks; it's about cheering them on, too.

Imagine dealing with big feelings and tough situations every day. That's a lot to handle, and sometimes, it leads to behavior issues. That's where cheers and little rewards come in. They're like high-fives for doing great things, helping kids stay on track and feel proud of themselves. It's not just about behaving—it's about feeling good about it.

By giving out snacks and cheering them on, we're doing more than just filling tummies or handing out prizes. We're showing these kids they matter, helping them do better in school, and giving them a boost of confidence that lasts way beyond the classroom. It's about making our school a place where every kid feels seen, supported, and ready to shine.
