Hogwarts at Our School

Help me give my students a new, fun and super exciting classroom space!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Garcia's classroom raised $385

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 classroom decor is falling apart. The materials I have for decorating my classroom and making it a fun space is going on its tenth year and the wear is starting to show. I have many posters and materials that are taped together and have seen better days.

My classroom is HUGE on reading and we all love it.

I would to create a space that is inviting and exciting for my kids. Harry Potter has always filled a gap between us and everyone enjoys it. Please help me bring Hogwarts into my classroom. I know every one will feel the coziness and magic once the classroom is changed up.
