Celebrating 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
We are currently learning about astronomy in our classroom. Most kids are excited about the subject, but bringing in a galaxy projector will take our learning out of this world.
The pencils and other items that I am requesting will be essential in helping us restock our classroom store which is opened once a week and has become the weekly highlight of many students.
I am especially excited to offer notebooks and coloring books so that students can explore their creativity and artistic abilities.
Your support in providing these items will greatly contribute to a great experience for our students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
