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 work at a school that offers comprehensive college prep classes.

Our students work on credit recovery, as they prepare for college and technical programs.

My students are making decisions now about their career path. We are hosting an event at our school to help students pave their way to college and celebrate inclusion.

We want to celebrate cultural diversity and let everyone know that Everyone is Welcome to be themselves. At this event students and families will learn about the importance of celebrating inclusion and planning for the future.

This event will be inspiring because we will have information booths about colleges, trade schools, and financial aide. We will have posters that promote diversity. It will be wonderful to see colorful posters that say, Everyone is Welcome. The poster in this project says, Always Remember You Matter. It will be wonderful to see this poster at this event.

This project has the materials we need for this event. We need an inspirational poster that celebrates diversity and inclusion, water-bottles that have inspiring messages, chips, stickers, fidgets, a sketchbook and colorful origami paper.

My students will use the sketchbook paper and origami paper to make inspirational posters. We already have a prize wheel. People that make an inspirational poster that promotes diversity will get a prize. The stickers, chips, water-bottles and fidgets in this project are prizes that will be given out at our event.

This event will be great! We will inform school counselors at the other high schools in our district about this event, so students from other high schools and their families can come. This event will benefit the students at our school, other high school students and community members. Thank you for supporting my students interest in having events that promote inclusion.
