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

Last semester, flu and colds took a toll on attendance. Students were passing the flu around like a bowl of candy. I want to be a little more proactive this next semester and face these germs head on. I believe we as teachers need to do all that we can to cut back on the germs and help keep our students healthy and attending school everyday.

Sanitizing our rooms is just one small step in keeping our students healthy.

We have to help our custodians when we can. This project is all about our students being healthy.
