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 BSES Seahawks work hard each and every day to make our school community a place that is filled with kindness and positivity. We promote positive behaviors through our PBIS schoolwide initiative, which allows students to earn Hawkeyes for being good citizens in our school community. The Hawkeyes they earn then allow students to purchase items at our school store. Kids love to visit the school store and have an opportunity to cash in the tickets they have worked hard for. Help our kiddos continue to spread kindness and positivity through our hallways by helping us to fill our school store with some cool prizes including crayon erasers, stress balls, and Mochi Squishy Toys!
