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 leadership students are striving to enhance the school environment and boost community spirit. We were originally only a middle school, and after becoming a K-8, the students wanted to find ways to help the elementary feel like this new campus was their home too.

These donations of markers, paint, and paper will give creative supplies to students so that they can design beautiful decorations for events and celebrations that help increase our student culture.

This initiative not only adds to the uniqueness of our K-8 school but also unites both elementary and middle school students in a shared sense of community, fostering a greater experience with leadership and creativity among our students.

Ms. Cocca
Grades 6-8
