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

My goal for this school year is for school community, all of our students, to focus on literacy during their lunch periods. By focusing on literacy students will be able to build on their reading skills.

Our school serve many opportunities to show incoming students in the future some of the best part of our school.

The goal is to aid literacy, but also encourage others how reading in Spanish can open doors for them. We know that Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States, therefore, the goal is for students to empower themselves and others to read in more than one language.
