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

I’m so proud of my Animal Care Club students! All year long, they’ve gone above and beyond to care for our class pets — feeding, cleaning, cuddling, and showing them so much love.

My students are kind, responsible, and full of heart, even when the work isn’t easy.

As a Title 1 STEM teacher, I see how hard they work both in class and behind the scenes, and I want them to know I notice and appreciate every bit of it. Fun games and toys will be a perfect surprise to kick off their summer — a little way for me to say "thank you" for their dedication and kindness. They’ve earned it a hundred times over, and I can’t wait to celebrate them!
