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

Having an organized space is essential in any art room. Well-designed systems make it easier to access supplies, minimize time wasted searching for materials, and encourage students to take responsibility for their environment. Unfortunately, many of the organizational tools in my art room are damaged and deteriorating. Some are on the verge of falling apart completely.

My students deserve a creative space where art supplies are well cared for, easy to find, and readily accessible.

When materials are organized, students can spend more time creating and less time searching. It also helps instill a sense of respect and ownership over shared resources.

However, I am working with a very limited budget and cannot afford to replace many of the broken or worn-out storage solutions, even though they are urgently needed.

By funding this project, you will help restore order and functionality to our classroom. Your support will allow me to replace damaged storage systems and ensure that our materials are preserved and accessible for all students. Thank you for considering a contribution to our creative space.
