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

I'm seeking funding to provide my students with summer workbooks to help them continue learning and growing even after the school year ends. These engaging, grade-level appropriate books will reinforce essential reading, math, and critical thinking skills, helping prevent summer learning loss.

Each student will receive a workbook as part of their end-of-year gift, ensuring that learning doesn't stop when the classroom closes.

Your support will make a direct impact by giving every child the tools they need to stay academically active over the summer and return to school confident and prepared for the next grade.
