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

Our students in choir, band, orchestra, dance, and drama work tirelessly all year to grow as performers, artists, and leaders. Our 1st Annual Performing Arts Banquet will give them the opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments together in a meaningful and memorable way. Many of our students have never experienced a formal event dedicated to recognizing their hard work and dedication to the arts.

The supplies for this project will help transform our space into a true celebration of creativity, teamwork, and achievement.

Decorations, awards, and banquet materials will create an atmosphere where students feel valued, confident, and proud of everything they have accomplished throughout the year.

This banquet will do more than celebrate performances, it will build community. Students from choir, band, orchestra, dance, and drama will come together to reflect on their growth, strengthen friendships, and create lasting memories as one performing arts family.

With your support, we can create a special tradition that honors the passion, talent, and commitment our students bring to the stage every single day.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
