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

Please help my students start off the school year right. I am requesting basic classroom necessities that our school cannot provide. The headphones we received last year barely made it through state testing and desperately need to be replaced. Pencils are such a simple staple but are required every day. Some items will help us organize the classroom to provide a healthy learning environment. These children should not worry about supplies and materials for the school. These things will allow them to get a big jump start on fourth grade.
