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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our 5th grade students are attending the first school overnight trip! They are nervous but excited to spend two nights at Golden Gate Park in Sausalito! We are counting down the days.

One of the items on their packing list is a bandana that they will use to eat lunch on the trail during their big hike.

How cool would it be to send them away in style and bright colors? The bandanas will be a small token to inspire them on their journey and they will have a keepsake for their memories.
