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 Students

I love that my students come to school eager and ready to learn. My students are special because they all bring something different to the classroom, whether it be their creativity; coloring in and out of the lines and seeing their visions through their creations, their sense of humor, and sharing the stories of their weekend adventures.

I'm honored to have a group of students who are kind to each other and are quick to lend a helping hand to one another.

My Project

I have a class of lively, happy Kinder students, who still come to school eager to learn, regardless of everything that is happening in the world! My students come from large, low socio-economic families. They do not have the means to provide to stay warm in the winter. I am asking for some help for my students to keep warm during this cold season. All students will benefit from your donation. What a better way to start the new year than to give students a way to stay warm with hats and gloves. Any help is much appreciated and thank you in advance for your generosity!
