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 am thrilled to share the incredible impact your generosity has had on our school through DonorsChoose projects. Thanks to your contributions, our library now boasts four cozy Saucer Chairs that have become a beloved reading haven for our students.

Building on this success, I am eager to expand our vision for the library.

I envision creating an even more inviting reading space where students can enjoy their lunch recess and dedicated study time. Your continued support will help us enhance the overall library experience for our students.

Additionally, DonorsChoose provided us with 3D pens that ignited the creativity of our students in art and design. I had planned an exciting project for our newcomer English learners, but unfortunately, we've run out of strands of filament. Your support is crucial in replenishing these supplies, allowing our non-English speakers to engage their hands and minds as they bring their ideas to life in 3D.

Together, we can make learning accessible and inspiring for all our students. Thank you for considering and supporting our vision for an enriched educational environment.
