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

Wow! It is after the holidays, and we need your help. My students will be preparing for state testing and need basic school supplies to set them up for success. They will be using these supplies for test prep and everyday usage.

Families at this time cannot afford re-buying school supplies and most purchases come out of the teachers' pockets.

My goal is to give my students books and basic supplies needed in order for them to finish their year strong. New supplies keep students motivated and continue to make our classroom shine!
