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 have so much fun teaching and learning with my unique, kind students. We are an ACE (Accelerating Campus Excellence) school, focused on relationships, empowerment, safety, positivity, engagement, collaboration, and trust.

My kindergarten students are full of joy, curiosity, and an eagerness for learning.

They learn through exploration and play, which promotes innovative and critical thinking. COVID-19 has created challenges for both students and teachers, but together we are overcoming them. Thank you in advance for helping me provide the best educational experience for my deserving students.

My Project

These basic school supplies will allow ALL my students to begin the school year with the materials they need to learn in kindergarten. To keep everyone safe, all students need their own individual supplies. This project will provide crayons, writing journals, white boards, and other basic supplies. My students' writing journals are always my favorite display of their tremendous learning growth in kindergarten.

My students will be able to experience various materials as they learn how to write their name, letters, and numbers.

Help me welcome my students to a joyful learning experience with new school supplies. Thank you so much!
