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 have amazing students who come to school every day with a curiosity that would make any teacher melt. Unfortunately, we don't always have access to all the supplies that we need to improve ourselves academically.

I want to make the classroom a truly comfortable learning and social-emotional space for everyone to thrive.

With these materials, we can jump light years ahead in providing for the future of our city and country.

Let's make a difference! Thank you so much for your kindness and support! We all appreciate it endlessly.

-Mr. C
