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

Facial tissues for in and out of the classroom is a must for our Prek-Kinder students. Messy noses, messy mouths and hands oh my!

The hand sanitizer will be on a lanyard for staff to keep their hands clean and the hands of our students as we create a safe and engaging learning environment.

The walking rope will be used for our students as we begin the school year with 3 year olds, this will teach our students to stay together, keep them safe and together. We use the walking rope on a daily basis when transitioning from the classroom to other destinations on campus.
