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

Thank you for helping me provide a comfortable learning environment for my high school students. High school can be stressful, senior year even more. I would like to a comfortable learning environment where students can listen to music while we work on Challenging Statistics, A classroom without Windows can be a challenge but Lets create a happy place. A pretty lamp, some ceiling panels and yes we always need more places to charge our laptops. We infinitely appreciate you taking the time to read about our class wish list. Thank you so much or your donations. Every dollar gets us closer to our Happy, Comfy and inviting classroom.
