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

Everyone loves back to school! As a teacher, it is never too early to start preparing! So many things go into planning for the best year ever! One of those things is school supplies. Each year I send home a recommended list of school supplies that students need for the year. For some families, this is a happy and exciting time.

For many families, the purchasing of school supplies can be a financial hardship.

This year, I would like to provide students with the basic supplies they will need! With your donation, each of my students will have pencils, crayons, scissors, and glue. Though this may seem small, your help will make a big impact on our students.

Thank you.

Mrs. Martin Kepler Neighborhood School Grades 3-5
