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 students are curious, energetic, and full of potential. They come to class each day eager to learn, and I love their resilience and creativity. They thrive when their environment is structured, welcoming, and free from distractions. As a teacher, I want to make sure they feel safe, supported, and ready to engage every day.

To help achieve this, I’m requesting three key resources.

A lockable cell phone cabinet will help students stay focused by securely storing their phones during lessons. A kid-friendly bookshelf will keep learning materials accessible and encourage independent reading and responsibility. Finally, a clear pegboard organizer will help manage classroom supplies, so students can easily find what they need without wasting time. These tools will help us build a classroom where every student can stay organized, feel empowered, and focus fully on learning.
